Yep, kit is only about 50-60% of the cost.
If you pay to install assume 1500 to 2k, oil cooler, fluids, etc will around it up to 10k total. Plus each kit has items you need to check and buy fluid for or replace parts periodically. These costs are usually minimal (100-300) but that can be yearly or sooner sometimes along with normal car maintenance requirements.
