Default HELP - Magnacharger installer in St. Louis?

I am going to buy a Magnacharger and have it installed as I don't have the time to do it myself. I checked Magnacharger's website and called their local rep for a quote. The price on the supercharger is pretty good but their labor seems a little high.

I'm looking for suggestions from anyone else - has anyone else had a Magnacharger installed in St. Louis and how much/how many hours of labor were charged? Thanks for the help!

I was talking to one of the tech's at ELCO Chevrolet in Ballwin, and he had put one on a Z06. I have no idea about his pricing. He does a lot of Corvette work. I would call and ask for their Corvette guy, and you will probably get him. I can't remember his name.

Thanks for the replies. Lynch Hummer is who I contacted but they are charging 12 hours of shop time. Their hourly charge is a little higher than some of the other local dealers, but only by $3/hour. When you get to almost $100/hour it really doesn't matter a whole lot! Lynch is only about 10 minutes from my house.

I wish I had the time to do it myself but we're working 10-12 hours a day 6 days a week. Then you've got the kids to run all over town.........it never ends.

If you started on Saturday, you would be on a beer run by Sunday afternoon.
