It looked to me like a lot of stuff(hardware) to install and you need a tune after and not somthing you may want to try in the driveway, so there's a shop's labor charge to.
In theory it's seems like a great ide/setup great power #'s without breaking open the motor. Probably not for me considering the cost

Update to my previous pricing info:

From Tbyrne.com
Part Number Item Price
COR5797T STS Turbo kit; 1997-04 Corvette C5 **Does not include fuel system upgrades or tuning** $6899.99

Tuning
COR9902TS STS Tuning (Includes 42# Bosch Injectors and Predator Tuning) 1999-02 Corvette $999.99
COR0304TS STS Tuning (Includes Mototron 60# Injectors, Predator Tuning and MSD Boost-a-pump) 2003-04 Corvette $1449.99

Exhaust Tip
CORTIPS STS C5 Twin Tip Upgrade $249.99

Air Bridge
STSC5-Airbridge STS C5 Corvette Upgraded Airbridge (includes silicone and clamps) $169.99

I think I was pretty close on my approximate price quote from earlier!!!

$8320-$8770 (depending on year for tuning)

I love these shows -- they make everything look sooooooo easy. BS!

Back in '98, I installed an ATI Procharger kit on my 1992 LT1 Vette. Literature said install should take about 8 to 10 hours using simple hand tools. What bunk! It took me nearly a month of nights and weekends to interpret moronic instructions as well trim and rehab poorly made parts. At that time, Procharger's over-the-phone technical assistance qualified as criminal negligence. Never again. Amen.

I agree! These morons were banging the pipes running to the front on the side of the car!! Are these guys REAL mechanics or just Hollywood jackazz's? Please!
