assuming he paid to have it all installed at alamo, i bet that is about right for the price.


the brake disks are pretty expensive, as in about 1100 for the disks (thats the cheapest i have seen them for, not sure what alamo charges for them), then to have them installed, i'm guessing at least a hundred or more. then exhaust, intake, etc with install, then alamo tune, i can see 6000.

Well, he did say "brake job cost 2,500 alone"

I'm figuring that yeah -- the majority of the remaining 3,500 went into installation, tuning, and dyno time. Catback + intake + IC pipes + BOV + sparkplugs aren't that expensive.

if your willing to pay 6k for installation on those parts you have to be out of your mind thats a mildly bolt on evo for 6k?, that almost a fully built motor w/out install, and tunes at alamo usually range around 400. I believe this listing just fails.

Actaully a tune from Alamo is around 200 on the dyno.. Problem is they just aren't worth a sh!!!!tt coming from there. Trust me I KNOW.. Bryce also wanted 550 to install my cams and 100 for installing a boost gauge so I did it myself. They are way overpriced.
