Install Questions and Help Please
Install Questions and Help Please
Hi guys I'm new to this board and I was wondering if you could help me out with a little info.
My buddy has a 2003 Civic EX coupe. Recently he purchased:
1. AEM CAI with no bypass valve
2. DC Sports Ceramic Coated Headers (4-1)
3. HKS Hi-power exhaust system
4. Skunk2 Coilover sleeves, no aftermarket shocks to go along with the sleeves.
My friend was supposed to have all of this stuff installed at his brother's friend's shop free of charge but some things went awry with that so we are looking at alternative options. I myself have never installed springs, CAI, or headers. I have done an exhaust before. I think that CAI should not be TOO hard so I could do that myself as well. My friend doesnt know that much about how to work on cars. When I first modified my accord I had a shop do all the work but its been a long time since that time so I have no idea how much installs would cost anymore.
So here is my question.
1. How much do you think a shop would charge to install all of these things? I mean I know some shops charge different prices, but on average how much do you think it would cost to have all of these things installed?
2. How much would you yourself charge if you were to do it?
3. Is there anyone that is willing to do all or some of these installs, and how much would you charge? If so where are you located and when would you be able to do this.
Thank you all for reading this long post.

Everything he bought should jave come with instructions. The install instructions should be pretty detailed and if you've held a wrench in your hand you should be able to do it.
I know I could do it if I sat down and did this but I am currently way to busy to spend a whole day doing all of this for my friend. He would not be able to do this himself. I am way to busy building a nissan 350z and Acura RSX for SEMA and these two cars are taking up all of my time all the way up until SEMA Nov. 4-7 or whenver it is but I'm just swamped lately with my own car stuff. Anyone here able to help?

Heh, nevermind then, I'm all the way over on the East Coast. Good luck though, there are several LA members on here that might be able to help you out. The Regional Forums would probably offer more help though.
