How much you got your Stillen G3 for?

lifeztream · 03-30-2010, 10:34 PM

Since most people recommend the Stillen G3 cold air intake, I am gonna go for it as well. One shop is offering me $600 material and installation. Just wondering hows that price comparing with the market. Share your expenses!

Buy it on your own and install it on your own. Cheaper and more fun!

They are ripping you off, atleaast buy it yourself then get a quote for install if you dont want to do it yourself. Either way thats alot of money. There are less expensive options if you are looking to get pretty much the same results for less money. They do look good tho.

Or go the DIY route, but that way doesnt have the bling that the other way has.

If you think about it... they are the biggest rip off on the market. I mean 500 dollars for what? 4 aluminum tubes, a set of filters, and some bolts and screws. Realistic price should be 149 bucks shipped but they know the sheep will buy it.

Baa!

This is true, no denying it, but like they say, we're paying for R&D costs, man hours, and equipment used to produce them. They'll come down in price after a bit, they always do.

Well if thats the price in the market...I guess there is no other options. :S How much people regularly charge for installation of an intake? (taking off the bumper)
