turbo install price quotes

Have a new Turbo that needs to be installed. What did some of you guys pay for labor. Just curious to see what everyone paid. I got a couple quotes that seemed a little high. I'm in the north east BTW

Its an 05 rs. Just bought a fp black. Is $600 basically being raped? A clutch install is 500-600. I wouldn't think the Turbo install is more labor intensive

600 is nuts. It's not the hard of a job at all.

350 should be about right from a reputable non-ghetto shop. 600 is rape
