$300 for a radiator, downpipe and y-pipe installed sounds like a good deal to me. It took me about an hour and a half for the radiator (not counting filling/burping, and a couple for the downpipe. I would expect 1.5-2 for the y-pipe as well.

I agree... That's not bad at all..

If you are worried about time, don't do it yourself. If you've never worked on the car yourself there is no telling what you might knock loose, pop off or break causing the install to take more time.

If you are wanting to do the installs yourself, make sure you have all the proper tools first and then take your time.

300 for all 3 is a good deal man... I would do it for that..just so I wouldn't have to crawl underneath the car..

dp only should be 150-200...they gotta charge extra just in case they have bolt problems..which many times you can..

rad is alteast worth 150 or labor too...coming from the bottom or top...gotta move lot of stuff..

ypipe..atleast 1 hours labor also....

DAMN GOOD DEAL

I enjoy working on my car, so unless it's over my head, then I just do it myself. My radiator took about 3 hours, and the DP was around an hour. I havent done the y-pipe though.
