Average cost of FI + labor

Dang..back to the piggy bank saving I go. I always thought it would be ballpark around 10-15K..never expected it to cross the 20.

You can still save in some areas to help with costs. Clutch doesn't need to be upgraded it will hold for awhile same goes with the differential. You only really need 2 gauges imo AFR and boost. A used Nismo (not the S tune) Exhaust can be had for cheap and will do good enough. Troll around on the Parts for Sale page and you can get some good deals on like new to slightly used parts.

You can also try to plan your install for the winter usually shops are less busy and more willing to cut a better hourly rate maybe.


Scratch all that, do some basic mods, get a helmet, sign up for a local car club and have some fun on the track. 300whp is plenty of fun and excitement if you never have.

I do frequent track days, I say once every other month or so but I just want something a bit more fun on the straight (I say on bumpywillow or big or even the great oval)
