Default $4k for Nitrous?

I've ordered all my parts and pieces for my c6 z06 nitrous build. After putting together a best of the best jam up kit and hitting the total button after install labor and re-tune iam all over $4k!!! Holy crap...last nitrous build I did on my c5 was like $1500 but I've added a lot more pieces and safety parts for the z. Didn't know what the nitrous junkies here have invested but looking for somebody to make me feel better about spending this much, but its still probably the cheapest 150hp you can get

Doing it right isn't cheap. Sounds about right though if you are doing a standalone fuel cell and all the safety stuff. Then paying someone to install it.

The labor and tune were probably 1/3 of the cost.....but without knowing the details its hard to say if you got raped...lol....example, there is a big difference in labor cost between a dp and a plate.

You hit the nail on the head, tune and labor cost are 1/2. But iam doing the nitrous outlet 90mm plate with hard lines and solenoid brackets, stand alone fuel system with c-16 fuel, ashtray switch panel, bottle heater, purge, psi gauge, window switch and fpss. Going with hp tuners credits and software w/ custom 100hp and 150hp tune-up. Car makes 550rw n/a, shooting for 700+...will post details and results after dyno and completion

That's the same setup as AzZ06Mike. http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-f...d-for-now.html
