Alright guys..I need to know if this a decent deal on these mods: 1.6lb lower pulley installed for 249.00. 2. Predator tune for $400.00 and 3. NGK TR6 spark plugs $20.00 for them and 2 1/2 hours of labor at 75.00 per hour. Let me know what you guys think of this deal..He also said adding all of that will prob at 60-70 hp at the wheels? what do you guys think of that as well!! thanks for your input

 

hmm sounds about what my friend was just quoted to get done, also i have never heard of a 1.6 lb lower pulley.

 

It shouldnt take a skilled mechanic 2.5 hrs for plugs.

 

on my last plug change it took me right at 2 hours, only because all but one coil pack boot came off in the hole. i had to yank each one out with a set of pliers.

everything else (besides the plugs and install) seems like a fair price.

fyi, i bought my last set of tr6's for $1.50 each from advace auto parts.

 

The labor charge is probably for the pulley and plugs cause $249 sounds about right for the pulley and belt. HP number sounds about right with the 6lber. and predator 93 octane pulley tune.

 

The Chilton Labor Guide (2006 Edition) for Domestic Vehicles pays 2.7hr for all 8 plugs on the Lightning

 

6lb pulley i mean't not 1.6..sorry typo

 

Is the pred tune including the tuner? or that just for a tune? If it's just for a tune I'd think $400 is a lil steep. I paid $225 total for my initial 4lb lower tune. That's $75 dyno time (for 3 pulls) and $150 for the tuner. Maybe I just got a REALLY good deal...

 

its for the predator tune

 

Take a close look at the following HOW-TO's and then imagine the smile on your face as you think of other mods to spend the $440 you just saved:

It takes less than an hour to change the plugs. I have done it in under 45 minutes working like a machine. The first time took almost 3 hours because it was my first plug change ever on a car, so I took my time to make no mistakes. It all comes down to having the right tools. the snap on tools extended plug socket is key to making it easy.
