  • Labor costs for installation

    I talked to a guy locally about placing SLP headers on my 1998 TA. He qouted approximately $450.00 for labor. He didn't seem to have much knowledge or experience in working with this type of system and car. I would much rather pay more for someone who knows what they are doing versus someone who doesn't know exactly what they are doing for less. Good deal or bad deal?

    What about labor costs for putting in BMR SFCs, Panhard Rod, Control Arms?

    Costs for simple bolt on items (Because I don't really know what I am doing) like throttle bodies, MAF etc?

    Thanx.

    That is actually too much for the install of LT's. Someone who has experience doing it should be charging a max of 350-400 bucks. I have heard of shops in TX doing it for as little as 275.

    It is actually a job that is doable with simple handtools and less than a weekend. With a friend you could have it done in half a day.

    Here is an SLP guide
