I installed my ProCharger myself, but reputable shops get $2k-isk for the labor. You can find LS2 complete kits in the $5500 - $6000 range if you shop and wait for discounts from Forum vendors. I love my system. Great power above 3000 rpm. Stock driveability. Most passengers will never know it's there. No brainer......best bang for your buck! Good luck.

I was quoted $8K parts and labor recently at 3 different shops when I was looking at the procharger supercharger. So I would say $8K plus tax would be a good yard stick to measure other's by.

Jack, we right next door to you & will hook you up. We are the area Pro Charger dealer & have done a ton of them....along with the correct tuneing for driveability. Give JP a call on Monday (813-628-0080) & we will go over everything you need to know & quote you on it. Also, stop by the shop for a tour so you can see some in the shop now & meet the techs that would do the install. We currently have 4 FI cars on the racks.

Any recommended shops/dealers for buying and installing of a procharger kit. Want to retain stock hood, maggie requires change. Not sure one would get a credit applied for loosing your hood. Willing 300 mile radius. Tks
