Beautiful.. I would love a setup like that on mine.. Very nicely done. What kind of $$$ are we looking at?

Hahahahaha.. Very well said! I would love to have a nice little setup like the pic above.. However, it seems everyone I've made contact with is only willing to do minimal work for a maximum price! If I knew EXACTLY what I was doing, I would do it myself.. Is that a dry setup on that pic? Most of the wet setups (except a select few) are not as "pretty" as a their dry setup counterparts.

I've got a Cold Fusion 200hp wet kit here and boy would I like to find someone who knows what they are doing and won't charge me a lung and a kidney to install it.. haha. I still have to buy one more 20 lb bottle but I will have (2) 20 lb bottles on "stand-by". That seems to be a major complaint by some of my friends on their F-Body cars.. They have a single 10 lb bottle and said it is a royal pain to keep filling a single 10 lb bottle. (2) 20lb bottles should really help between refills. We shall see.. lol!

Keep in mind when paying someone to plumb a directport you want someone that knows what they are doing. You get what you pay for. It takes alot of time to do a nice clean job and knowledge and quality come with experience. I will be the first to tell you we do not strive to be the cheapest. We strive to be the best!

Thanks Dave.. I COMPLETELY understand. I guess I should have worded it better. I am willing to pay the premium price for a premium install. The installers that I have sat down with to discuss the install "usually" do not give the extra effort to make it a "show worthy" installation. I am very interested in a setup like the one you have posted above. At the moment, my car is still at the paint and body shop getting a new paint job. It "should" be ready 04-17-09. Once I have it towed to my house, I will re-install the entire interior and re-install a few misc parts.. I plan to have everything up and going sometime in May. I will send you a PM with a few other details.. Thanks!

So Dave what would you charge to put your direct port kit on my LT4 intake
Labor+kit= big smile on face with empty pockets?
