Default Replacing my brake booster

Replacing my brake booster and I was just wondering how long should it take a shop to do it. I dont want to get ripped off . So how many hours of labor should they charge me for?

It took me about 4 hours with no air tools. Also, my Vette has ASR so it had to be moved, only takes an extra 15, but still . Call a dealer and ask what the flat rate for the job is in the book. Also, allot of people on the forum have had it done, do a search for Brake Booster in C4 tech, General discussion.
