If at the end he ends up tacking on another hundreds (hopefully not thousands..) of dollars I'm going to go nuclear. My biggest concern is that somebody at the shop didn't follow CJM install directions, replaced some AN fittings, next thing you know then they need to replace the fuel line etc when it could have all been settled with a simple call to CJM since I've heard such great stories of them helping you through the install--and now I'm footing the bill. Really upset I'm paying the price of an install that is what people are paying to do twin turbos, and I was all set to just do the supercharger install myself but wanted someone *experienced* to do the return fuel system. Hopefully the motor works well--they asked me if they could take it for a spin when install was done (which I thought would be an obvious HELL NO to anyone knowledgeable of tuning running new boost on a base map) but guess I'll know when I get the car back and the engine is knocking and ticking.. Really about to just go there and tow the car back home to finish the job but they've already hacked up the fuel system so much I'd be back at ground zero. Sorry for the venting, should have got twin turbos now (pricewise at least). That moment when you realized you done f*d up, thousands of dollars over budget after doing research and buying the right parts for two years and the car hasn't even been attempted to start up yet.
When it's all said and done, car is fully tuned and you take it for your first drive, the smile you'll have on your face will make up for what you're putting up with right now.
