it is pricey, but you get what you paid for, i believe p-tuning will do it all for $750. that sounds reasonable considering the amount of work, tools and the fact that they work on alot of tc's and know what they are doing.

generally if your not skilled in putting those in its a much wiser decision to just pay to have it done itll save you money in the long run

i feel like i can do it w/o taking out the motor . i think i remember seeing the install with them just taking out the entire right side of parts in the the engine and they could reach the clutch and flywheel

Who told you the motor has to come out? That's gotta be the funniest thing I've heard in a long time . I've dropped my tranny 5 times now, and it only takes me 3 1/2 to 4 hours start to finish. The motor does not have to come out. That's just stupid .

Unless you have the right tools for the job and have had experience putting in a clutch on a transverse engine, its not quite like putting in a cold air intake. You'll definitely need a good torque wrench and a clutch alignment tool. If you don't have a lift to use, I wouldn't suggest doing it on jack stands. If I were you I'd just have some performance shop or get the TRD clutch installed from your dealership.
