All of this for $570

So I took my car to a mechanic who has done a lot of work on evos. This is what I got installed on my car:
Cams
Headstuds
Clutch and Flywheel
Boost Controller
Porting of turbine housing
Under Hood Shifter Bushings
02 bung welded into downpipe

...all for $570

haha yes everything is in there. I went to the shop periodically to see the progress he was making. So I do know for a fact everything is in there. And I do have the dyno numbers to support the work 356whp and 378wtq.

I will be going back there to have him install my meth and intercooler for $175

Maybe he wanted to charge you 1570, but missed the 1. Or he's good as a mechanic, but sucks at math. Or he's just a really nice guy. In any case, props to you for such a good deal. Wish I could get that done for so cheap.
