Cheap installation for DP and Springs? SHOPS ANYONE? OR HELP?
Hey i-club, I just bought an Invidia Down Pipe (2 gaskets) and TEIN S.Tech Springs for my 08 STi. I got a reasonable quote from Speed Element for $225 installation for both DP and Springs. Does anyone else know where I can have these professionally installed for less than $200. Money isn't easy theses days! HELP A BROTHA OUT! Reply with some liable shops! (:

And if anyone wants to help me install my Down Pipe (one less thing to get professionally install for $$$$), i'll take you out to lunch!

Haha its not much, but lunch and a talk with me shall be a good i-club reunion.

PM me or REPLY to this thread! THANKS I-CLUB

Do it yourself. It's free as long as you have basic tools.

I don't get why people buy parts and don't realize they still have to shell out money install. And then complain they have no money. Doesn't make any sense. If money is tight, don't buy parts. Just my .02

S-techs won't get you hella flush. They'll get you some hella blown (struts).

Hella blown does sound good when it's not the struts though.

Agreed.


OP- return your springs and get the pipe installed. Or sell you springs, install the pipe yourself. (**Make sure you have money set aside for a proper stage 2 tune if don't already have an accessport**) then buy some good rep springs that will give you a nice ride and great performance.
