I've installed a couple of vortech systems in Zs and Gs and the Stillen on my own 350Z. Typically its about a 10 hour job. I'm getting ready to install one for a local guy for 500.

yea it includes tuning

Self Install
 

I am not a an automotive mechanic but I do have an innate ability to fix most anything. I have turned wrenches since I was 16 and rebuilt the engine and transmission in my GT mustang at the age of 17 plus helped a friend do an engine swap and rebuild. I have pretty much always done my own automotive work and i feel I am pretty competent in what I am doing as long as I have the tools for the job.

If a person has a garage and is equipped with a good set of tools and has a background such as stated above have much difficulty installing a supercharger themselves?

I see a real benifit to installing it yourself so you understand exactly how it works and where everthing is for troubleshooting issues that may arise down the road rather than being dependant on the shop that installed it. I am a senior systems engineer by trade so troubleshooting issues no matter what it is, is second nature to me.

Are there any other mods going into it? Maybe an upgraded fuel system, or an oil cooler it, could be involved with the quote?

I installed my vortech, injectors, utec, walbro and did my swirl jet mod in about 3 hours.... I would NEVER pay someone to install anything in my car but a motor if even that.... 80-100 bucks an hour just isnt worth it to me. My greenbacks dont come so easy so I have to place them strategically. :)

SC install is definitely doable if you are at all mechanically inclined. Most anyone can do mechanical work, it's just that not that many people trust themselves to do so.

Always do it yourself

Agree but whe yo get older have three jobs and not all the tools and the dealer says factory warrenty stays true if we install it and their tag is only $1700 you let the dealer do it, :)
