    Default need a mechanic..

    Im in the process of gathering quotes to have my ITB
    put on my car
    all that really needs to be done is have the t3 manifold machined to appropriate diameter (mates a fitter/ turner so thats no issue)

    got the quads, the velocity stacks, can pic up a SAFC, will have all vaccum lines/ barbs and fittings, throttle cable, even the eagle vac plenum

    just need some one cheaper than 3500.

    i was quoted this today i dont know if he was stoned or i was just ignorant to the fact how much these things cost to install

    ive looked at the do it your self posts and would love to attempt something like this but dont have the know how.

    any one here on the forums want to make a few dollars. im not going to pay 3500 but yee

    Kind regards

    im located in nsw,
    is 3500 an unreasonable price please tell me no but i think its a slap in the face.
    this guy wins world championships sure charge a bit more but don`t tell me im an idiot for putting quads on a 4age with stock internals tells me the gains are marginal (i know this)

    and tells me its race gear not suitable for every day use.

    just gets better

    did it include all the tuning etc???

    like if it was including things like throttle balancing, tuning of the engine, wiring in the safc, blah blah blah... $3500 might be high but still in the ballpark for top notch work. still a REALLY big might.

    If its really just a matter of pulling shit of and putting shit back on... joke price. there is a guy in sydney i think who specialises in fun 86 things and is reportedly REALLY good and very well priced. If sydney works for you, i can pm you contact info. He might be on this forum already but i dont know his details here
