I have went to 2 dealers and the prices were $350.00 at one and $135.00 at the other. You have to shop around.

PARTECH information indicates 1.5 hours. But this is just a guideline (dealers are not in any way "bound" to that time) and the time is totally whacked in my opinion. Flat-rate at WARRANTY rate would be close to double that!
I dont think you'll easily find a dealer/tech that will do it for less than 2 hrs- but some might.
(especially if they sold you the kit and already made their $$)
IMO if you pay 3.0hrs labor or less for Stage 2 you're getting a deal.

Just got mine installed today actually for $240 dead on. Initial estimate was $280 (3.5 hrs), another dealer #2 offered to do it for $260, dealer #1 came back w/ the $240 I ended up paying ... and it was well worth it!

The dealer close to me says he'll honor the 1.5 hour suggested install time!!! but he won't reduce the msrp of $1264 for the parts for stage 2.

Install the puley and injectors yourself and just get the dealer to do the flash! I did it that way and saved lots of $$$. I have a pulley puller so if anyone in the GTA wants me to do the install then PM me.

Mine was 125 US. ANd took about an hour and 45 min for them to do.

I was told by every dealer near my (Less then a 1 hour drive theres 4) that they will not do the reflash if they didnt put the kit on. Yours might be differant. Thats just what I found.

Later
