I know the shop has great ties with BP so that's why I contacted them, but when I saw almost 7K I about pooped myself. I was expecting around 1200 bucks for install and keep the whole project under 10k.

I should note that I'm not just blasting the shop either, I mentioned to him that this was much higher than I expected so I wouldn't be able to pursue my dream just yet.
That's a terrible price. Find another shop or DIY. 7k for 16 hours is over $400 per hour. **** that guy and his whole family.

Absolutely. For $7k they should be supplying the remainder of your required mods and handle the install.

If you can change your oil and spark plugs. You can install this yourself. It couldnt be easier with the giant colored picture book it comes with. Well i guess it could be a pop up book.

If you have any mechanical abilities at all just dont even worry about paying a shop to do it. Not only will you be able to troubleshoot any issues and/or uninstall it if you ever sell your car, but you can take pride you did it yourself and built your own car.

You will be charged another $1200 for uninstall some day. And if you have emmisions tests you will be taking most of the kit off in 2 years.

Depends what state people do their emissions. Here in Chicago, I did it with the full kit on. It normally would fail but there is a small window of opportunity to pass emissions after you reset your ECU and drive it for a little.

Would still over pay if they only paid for other supporting mods.
