Boosted Performance V 2.0 turbo list

If the shop quoted u around 7k for install and tune then you need another shop cuz that place is robbing you.

Agreed. I paid way less than that and I have a TT kit which required the motor to be dropped.

I should clarify that it was install quoted at 16 hours, along with another system that was described as a very good idea. 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.

Bro.... Id pack up my tools, take off work for a week, drive up there, install your kit, drive it to a tuner and get it tuned for you for half of that asking price lol.

But seriously, if you can change your oil and your spark plugs, you can install this with basic tools. Grab a buddy who is more mechanically inclined if need be and knock this out. You will learn about the components and the car which is a good thing just in case you have any issues later. You will then have an understanding of the system and could possibly avoid a costly trip to a shop.

That's the other issue.. Here in Indiana i can't seem to find a tuner close so even after install I'll have to rely on the supplied map until I can get time to trailer it to a tuner.

I change my oil, plugs, brakes, my G3s and anything else really. I suppose my biggest fear is the subtle issues with oil lines and such that worry me. Sounds like I shluld just pony up and do it, I guess it looks like a few of you would totally be around to help if I have questions!

The base map is fine to drive on. You won't need to trailer it anywhere.

Agreed. Just run WG pressure and don't install a boost control until you go get it tuned
