Default Price to install H/C package?

I was just want to get an idea of how much it would cost to have a H/C package installed with tuning professionally. What did most of you guys pay and where did you have it done. If you dont want to post it here would you please email (mad2hotty@hotmail.com) me to let me know. Thanks Malcom

Of course it depends on who does it.. I paid $500 for the install and about the same for the dyno tune.

The materials cost $1500 easy..

.. and I got it all done pretty cheaply, but with people who knew what they were doing.

Damn thats not a bad price Mikey.

Why not do it your self though..... its not that hard. Then take it to the shop and have them tune it and then the money you saved you can get more mods.... just a thought.

that is a really good price mikey I might be contacting you real soon The reason Im not doing it myself is I dont have a garage and I know my pace will make it be a 2-4 day job and to be honest my wife would have my nutz in a sling if my car was sitting on our pad in the backyard all taken apart for that long...at least if i were getting it done somewhere she'd know its gonna get done and done right. 12hr or less jobs i do myself over that or having to depend on friends to help out aint happnin. One thing ive learned about modding is only depend on yourself and if you know your gonna need help dont do it if you have time retraints.
