A reasonable price for these mods?
Getting ready to get some mods done for spring. I purchased Kooks headers and catted pipes from a forum vendor. Also have a Vararam already installed. 2013 LS3, M6.
I've been quoted $1285 for the following:
Install my headers and catted pipes.
Install my Z Cool insulation.
Install a 160 degree thermostat ($20)
Install HP tuners nGauge with a couple of credits
( $425-$475 )
Dyno tune before and after installation, use tuner credits.
I just don't want to crawl around in my tiny garage trying to install headers on my own. If I was 30 years younger, I'd tackle the job tomorrow.
So I figure I'm paying about $800 for all the installation and a tune. The nGauge is just an option that I wanted. Prices include tax.
Sound reasonable?

I've been there twice talking and asking questions. They appear to be pretty knowledgeable especially with the LS3

That's how I feel about it. I've always enjoyed doing my own maintenance and upgrades, but Father Time is undefeated.
