Question $$$ for everything?

just wondering for those of you who have a turbo kit and had it installed by a professional...
how much did you pay for everything, gauges, turbo, labor?
im so close to buying the sf kit w/ water-wair intercooler... but this is soo expensive!!! AHHH and i need to get gauges, timer, blah blah... im wondering if i should just wait to see if more companies will make better kits or what not... advice?
thanks

It will cost 500-700 to get it installed by your local shop. Turbo timer is like 100 dollars. The guages your need are EGT, Boost, and maybe a tranny temp guage if you have an automatic.

Yes because you went to SF himself, not a local shop
