Default Going rate for a turbo kit install

Just curious, I tried searching, guess I'm not typing in the right keywords cuz i have seen a thread like this before lol. Anyway, around what price do most places charge JUST for the INSTALL only, nothing else.

I was quoted by a leading Shop that does fully blown G35, #50Z, Diablos, Viper, Vettes @ $2000 for Turbo install, Emanage install(not tune), gauges, pretty much everything. Way toooooo much so I'm still looking around for a godd installer at reasonable prices. I founf this good shop that has over 20 years of experience quote me at $800 bucks, but I have to get the turbo kit through them(Tnetics or Greddy).

Pretty good. No leaks and the boost is just right for me. Since I've moved to Tucson my electronic boost gauge has been acting wierd (working on and off) but nothing that concerns me. I can tell and know when I'm hitting boost and for how long. It s cyndyne which I'm going to swap an autometer or greddy.

If I do end up getting a turbo, Anyone who is confident and has done a turbo before, I would be very VERY interested in your services for a price.

That rout is always better however I was unfortunate that no one was around to help me so next best thing was to cough up some cash.
