Great pricing!! That's basically buying the kit and parts and installing for free (or maybe just a couple hundred bucks)!!!

So I am not a gear head and I have never gotten into heavily modifying cars.
But I was looking at adding a little more oomph to my Vette.
A co-worker of mine had his C6 modified by this shop and highly recommends them.
My goal is to try and stay naturally aspirated.
This is the package I am looking at for $5495:
2014 Corvette Stingray Performance Package
550 BHP / 530 lbs-ft of torque
Package includes:
• 21CMC Custom VVT Camshaft
• Dual valve springs w. retainers
• Phaser limiting kit
• Gaskets, bolts, seals, fluids....
• T-304 Stainless steel 1 7/8" long tube headers
• 3" collector & x-pipe
• Hi flow catalytic converters
• Lingenfelter 160 thermostat
• AFE Cold Air Intake
• Professional installation
• 21st Century Muscle Cars custom dyno & street tune
• Chassis dyno report w. wide band reports
Shop is 21st Century Muscle Cars in DFW link: http://21stcenturymusclecars.com/200...1-1-1-1-2.aspx
Do you think a package like this is worth the cost?
Would something like this significantly impact engine life/reliability (assuming quality work and installation)?

Suggestion: find out in advance what is/are the items that will need either more maintenance or more frequent replacement, and at what cost estimated now, of course. Always good to know. Depending on how long you intend to keep the car, it's not a bad thing to have the shop that built it in your town, not that anyone can't work on it.

See what brand of headers, if they are CCed and if you can swap for Vararam. If it comes in around this price, it is a good deal and on par with what other quality shops charge.
