Default Who has APR stg3+ / Turbo installation fee?

Hi,
Is that anybody has apr stg3+ kit?

(I asked them about it, but they said it depends on shop and car condition??)

Default My APR3+ install was $2,300...

I wonder if APR lists a ball park estimate of how long it takes to install?

Depends on the shops labor rate. It should take 6-10hours for an install for the first time and rates are usually $70-100/hr. BTW, there is alot more power to be had for far less than a $5k kit from apr for only 290-320whp on a gt28rs. YOu can get an equally good kit from pagparts for under $4k and a 50trim kit from CTSturbo.com for ~$3k
