Conley's Performance: Hidden charges
I had headers put on at conleys on a 2000 Z they did everything for 400 but took forever, HPE does everyrhing cheaper and faster with great quality they also know a lot more about F-bodys you can just tell bt talking to them. I had gears put in at Conleys and they left out 2 rear end bolts also my bottle heater wiring came apart.
There nice people but money is money.

I took my Turbo TransAm there many a years ago. I forgot what exactly happened and it was so horrific for me that I put it in the back of my head to forget about it but to NEVER take my car back there again. Bluntly the only thing I could recall was that I got charged very high on something to support their race cars I reckoned.

about a year ago they charged my friend 500 for a tune. they asked for the keys and we expected them to put it on the dyno, but instead they drove around the block a few times and got on it a little(IN THE RAIN) then came back and tuned on it for about 15min(not on the dyno). flashed the computer and handed him his keys back.

It works both ways, unfortunately.
When I managed a repair shop I actually had a customer become irate because the bill came in less than my quote. For all of the work we did I quoted him $1200.00 and the bill came in at $1146.58. He felt the need to 'haggle' over the price then saying he'd pay $900.00. I love cheap *** Mercedes owners.

I'd say you got screwed.

Now I may be wrong but at every other place I've been to, installing headers means removing the stock exhaust & spark plugs, then installing the headers. Not here, they charged me $400 for the header install, $75 to remove my stock exhaust, & $40 to install my new spark plugs, which is all stuff that is normally included from the other places I've been to. I know on my WS6 I was charged $350 at Madman & Co to take off my stock exhaust, install new headers, y-pipe, catback, & install my new plugs & wires
I REALLY should have gotten a quote on everything first because I got charged $240 for the drill mod, $344 to install my new shocks,& $320 for my poly motor mount install. Again maybe these prices are normal these days but when I modded my WS6 5 years ago, prices weren't even close to that. Was I ripped off cuz it feels like it. I won't be going there again
