it's a local shop called p-tuning. they have a tc and an xb they customized for shows.

To me i'd rather let a place that knows about the tc than some random mechanic doing it by instructions on the manual.

What do you guys think ?

 

that's kinda harsh price-wise. check your regional forum and see if someone can do it for you and pay them. most will do it for a 6 pack and dinner ^^

 

thts a rip off.. i was quooted 140 from RZmotoring and 125 from speedzone ( both in orlando) but i will be doing mine with RZ since i like their work better

 

well providing that you don't have a lift, then you can't do it VERY easily though I have heard it done using jack stands. It really isn't that difficult at all to do yourself. A little time consuming but very do-able. You just have to get alignment done afterwards.

 

BTW are you in VA??? and where??

 

fairfax county.. right by tysons corner !

 

wow I was gonna say if you were around Va Beach, might be able to get you on base at the hobby shop and help you do the swap. Using the lifts and all the tools cost me $16 and 4 hours of my time.

 

I just called VIPgarage in sterling and they quoted me at $150 !.

Keeps getting better.

 

how long is the drive down to VA beach from fairfax ?

 

think like 4+ hours

 

yikes... that's like a drive up to newyork.

 

$150 sounds better. I got mine installed for $100 at a local shop. Im sure there's more shops in Fairfax that you can call.

 

I got mine done for $140.

 

u guys paid alot, i got mine done for 80 they installed it a little bit over 1 hour.

 

did mine myself. and i am in virginia. i also have a set of trd springs on stock shocks/struts for sale. local pickup it would be 200 installed with stock trade offs, 250 installed and you keep your stocks.

 

Shop around. I was quoted between $250 - $850...yes $850. I finally found a friend that new some guys that would do it for $125... after doing it they said that it took longer than they thought and that they would bump up the price next time.

The biggest issue is the design of the rears. When they type it into their computers, it pops up as 4-6 hours of labor... that is why you will see high prices.

It can be done without going to a shop... but from what I hear.... unless you have the right equipment.... it's a pain.

 

I got mine down for a large pizza and some thunder mountain (knock off of moutain dew) only took like 6 hrs to do

 

I got mine for $150, springs, shocks, and struts with 2 alignments. Local dealership wanted about $600 for the same thing (minus the alignments).

 

mine was 120 at a local shop.

 

i got my s-tech installed for $199 parts and labor. trendixinc.com in So-Cal
