Estimate: How Much $ Needed To Install These Parts

What I am asking for is some prices on the installation of these parts. I dont have good mechanical ability, I did however, install the Z tube and Pop charger with the help of a friend. I am just trying to get an idea of how much money I will need to save up taking into account the cost of labor after I buy the parts. I am just looking for some approximate numbers to help give me an idea, any input would be appriciated.
And if somone thinks that I might be able to do some of these mods myself, please indicate so. In addition to listing the prices for installation, maybe someone would even be kind enough to rate them in order of difficulty to install....Thanks again guys.

This is a list of the engine modifications that I plan on doing to my G coupe:

1) Crawford or Kinetix Plenum

2) Crawford or Kinetix Hi-Flow Cats

3) Stillen/Fijitsubo/Borla Exhaust

4) Technosquare ECU (How much is shipping?)

5) Fujitsubo/Top Secret/ JIC Y Pipe

6) Grounding Kit

7) Borla (I think) Headers

Re: Estimate: How Much $ Needed To Install These Parts

Alot of the mods that you listed are the same ones that I'm going to be performing, so I'll give you the estimates I got:

1) I'm getting the Kinetix Plenum and installing it myself (if you did the Z-tube/Popcharger, you can do this - supposedly has great instructions)

2) Just ordered Helix SS Test Pipes, getting them installed next week for $40 (would be doing myself as well if I had a lift available) - est. 1 hr labor

3) Exhaust - I've looked at several, but I think I'm going with the Pro-1 (even thought about a custom one for a while) - I was quoted $80 for the exhaust or $100 for exhaust and test pipes at the same time - shouldn't take them longer than 2-2.5 hours...

4) ECU - still undecided on this - my advice to you would be to do every OTHER mod you want to do first and then consider the TS ECU... for quick turnaround, overnight will probably run you around $25-30 or so...

5) Y-pipe/headers - see exhaust... I would suggest that if you're wanting to do all the lower exhaust pieces (cats, exhaust, y-pipe, headers) and you have the means, do them all at once to keep the costs down... the headers are going to cost the most of any of those pieces (prob. around $200)

Good luck with everything, and some of those estimates may be a little lower for me since I live in a small town (10,000 people) and we basically have 1 guy who does all of our work for us....
