Default Install Cost

I am located in AZ and I have been looking at this kit from brenspeed for quite awhile..

http://www.brenspeed.com/v3vortech.html

Nice little adder with room too add. Not looking for a monster and wanting to keep it in a very safe range.

About much is the install cost, I am not mechanically inclined let alone have the time for it so a shop is the best answer for me! I have heard about $1000..?

Do you know of any local trusted shops? You could email or give them a call and they will give you an estimate. With that non IC setup, I cant see it being over $650 max.

I paid $1050 for the S/C install on that kit. The other quote I got was for $850, but the shop was so busy they couldn't even return phone calls so I went with the other guys. I cared more about having a reputable/experienced shop do the work than the price.

I am looking around at shops online right now, gonna email a couple, I just want to get a baseline to know if it's a good deal or not.

How do you like the kit??

Hey I would make sure to call up some of those shops on like monday. There are a lot of big shops that never get caught up on their emails.
