broke Donating Members 229 Member For: 13y 2m 19d Gender: Male Posted 05/06/12 03:20 AM Share Posted 05/06/12 03:20 AM hey guys, I just bought a new pipe kit and got a quote to fit from my tuner of $300. I didnt really know what to expect with fitting costs but I was a little taken back by it given I only paid $345 for the kit. He also said that I can have a 2nd hand F6 cooler for $200 ($500 total fit) if I wanted as well. Seem about right to anyone that has had them installed?Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did it myself, took about 3hrs with a mate, could do it in half that now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at some tuners labour rates I can see this being in the ballpark. I did mine in the garage over alot of beers and a few hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But also its satisfying doing it yourself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
