I am getting a Helix Up/ DP, HKS Hi power Exhaust, and eibach pro-kit lowering springs for my wrx...the place that I'm getting it all installed at is asking $1500 for it all (including installation). Is this a good deal???

2nd...my friend is helping me install an autometer boost gauge next week and I need to know if I need to get a T adapter to install it or can it fit work fine witout one??? If yes, where can I get a T adapter??? Thanks!

Exhausts shouldn't be much more than $100-150, so a full suspension install definitley shouldn't be 1300 to install based on the number you were quoted. Seems pretty...excessive.

I'd love to know whereyou can buy a turbo-back system and up pipe for 150 dollars.

I'd think this is a breakdown:

up/down pipe= 450
HKS Exhaust= 550
Eibach= 250

Thats 1250 at reasonable internet prices (you may find cheaper), but maybe more from a shop. 250 is left for installation, which isn't bad, I guess. Most shops in my area charge 50/ hr for labor.

All in all, sounds like a good deal if you don't want to do it yourself.

Do any of you guys who have Uppipes and Downpipes ever get pulled over by cops??? I am worried that if i get this setup, cops might be on my @$$... Thanks

My mistake, I thought he was just quoting install prices!

Yep, that would make sense!

Delani- Do you mean pulled over because of the noise? I've had no problems in MO.
