I was quoted 600 bucks awhile back but found someone to do them for 350.

jeredan2003 · 04-16-2006, 05:26 PM

How much does he charge?

honestly, i would do the install myself if i were you, there are great write ups available and i did a VT stage II install w/ springs and all and it only took a couple of days....plus you have piece of mind knowing that there were no shortcuts taken and that no one beat on your car...plus that 400-600 bucks can to go something else...headers??

oops..i didnt think u had a tb/plenum..haha..my bad

csledd · 04-17-2006, 05:35 PM

lol yeah

only reason i would stay away from stage 2's is if you dont want to pay/do it yourself on the valvesprings and you dont like a car that shakes at idle

stage2roush2002 · 04-17-2006, 06:01 PM

Im going with the VT Stage 2 N/A.... I need the power

not to mention pulling up next to a honda at a red light while you shake the ground and watching them look at you with their mouth open

dannyb785 · 04-18-2006, 09:29 AM

I'd say get cams in a heartbeat....UNLESS you plan on getting a supercharger. Stage 2 cams hurt the s/c ability to make boost
