$3500 for Meth???? WTF

[bpd1151]

Awesome Fast SHO. k:

Perhaps others will contact that vendor then.

Do you know what particular meth kit is being utilized?

Also, is it a 100% Methanol Kit, or an end user defined mixed solution? Say like 50/50%?

IIRC, I believe Alky Controls was looking at selling their kits for like in the $700 range. I could be mistaken.

But even with that, your stated price quote of $850 would mean the vendor you cited is theoretically doing the install for $150.....

Which, I'll add, is just as ludicrous, albeit on the opposite end of the spectrum.

So just to be clear Fast SHO, no one is questioning any tuner's reputation, and no one is questioning you per se....

But it goes w/o saying that details are helpful.

So thank you for providing your vendor, now please consider supplying the remainder of the suggested information.

It may prove beneficial for all potentially considering this mod for themselves down the road.

Thanks once again.

:thankyou:

Considering the alky kit cost around 850$. The install by a professional dhould take between 10-20 hours at a rate of 50$-100$ per hour. I paid 20 hours at 75$/hour for a very clean job. I found it a bit long and expensive, but it was their first time.
So for that kit, it should be between 1500$ to 2500$ all included, no more.
Thx!

I misspoke.  $850 installed.  So you are looking at $1600-1800 for the kit plus install/tune with Bob.

But that is my last post on the subject.  $3500 is insane.

In my case, I already had a tune fron LMS and I only want them to tune my car (even if I am sure others are very qualified, LMS have been tuning more than any for at least three years and it was reassuring for me)... So, when I ordered the ally kit from them, even if the kit was installed by someone else, Livernois updated my tune at no cost. So that is another option too.

So out the door, all totalled, members are potentially looking at outlaying $2,450-$2,650 through the vendor you've cited.

Or $1,800 total (labor & parts combined)? Difficult to decipher as your post isn't clear.

Although collectively, other members may agree with your (repeated) opinions of LMS, the revised amount you've specified is still nothing to sneeze at.....

And a far cry from your initial (implied total) of $850.

Thank you clearing that up, and acknowledging you misspoke.

Good info, is better then no info at all.

You should've just supplied all the particulars to begin with.

In a round about way, you're doing the vendor you cited a disservice by not talking them up from the onset.

I think this topic has been beaten to death, and discussed well enough.

Therefore, thread closed.  :lock:
