Regarding sc installation, KMT charges a package price of $3,700 installed, regardless of how long it takes them to do it. That's too much, imo.

Yes Dealers charge by the hour. But not Man hours. They have a log that says "It takes X amount of hours to do XXXXX procedure." So lets say the log says it takes 8 hours to install a supercharger in a tC. So they charge you in my case 85 bucks an hour for 8 hours. Regardless if it takes them 4 or 6 to complete the task.

3700 total is not bad at all. Thats under 400 for install.
