Probably going to go with Trifecta for now.

I might go IPF s/c after my deployment but I don't think I will.

Yeah I know how that goes, before this the last thing I did was a looong time ago. I tend to get a lot of things changed at once.

I plan on getting the ZL rockers, T4 splitter/under tray/deflectors, different hood/trunk too Planning on ordering these all between now and Feburary. And have them painted/installed while I'm at NTC.

Trying to get my project car started too, that's going to be the hp monster but that will get the focus after deployment lol

Im thinking about getting BBK LTs but i wanted to know what some of you all paid for install at a shop. the lts are $700 alone and im thinking around $300 for a install. let me know what your experience is with all this. im going to visit a few shops and see what they say but i just wanted a idea for now because if install is going to be ridiculous ill just get the ark dt-s exhaust system for now.
some of you might say "do it yourself" "you'll save a ton" but i dont have the time on my hands to bother with it so im left with the only option and thats for a shop to do it.

Depending on where you live 300 is about what you will pay to have them installed. There have been people that have gotten them installed for less though.

If you really want to know what the price to install them should be as a shop what their hourly rate is (most will say in the 70-80 range) and multiply by 3-3.5. That's more than enough time for a shop to do a header install on these cars.

Yeah I got my stainless steel ones for a steal at $625. But I'm going to have my body shop install them. I've heard it's a pain to install without air tools. And I don't have the time to do it myself. Gearing up for deployment right as I get back from TDY so little to no time to get car stuff done.

But I think $300 is a normal amount. My guy might charge me somewhere along that amount too, but I have full trust in my guy.

Like others have said, I wouldn't pay more than $300-400. We did mine ourselves on base, took about 4 hours
