Inlet install estimate

Helio324 · 08-11-2016, 01:41 AM

Hey guys I'm looking to install the MMP silicon inlet (in stock location, driver side) and wondering what are the quotes you've been getting for labor?

Location: SoCal - anywhere around Huntington beach area

These will be the 1.75" diameter connection to stock frame turbos.

I had a shop install mine for 400$ The shop is located in Glendora

Most in SoCal are quoting 400-500 when I asked.

Are u guys installing inlets on stock turbos?

For me at least, the inlets will be on stock turbos. You don't know how tempted I am to upgrade to Hexon RR600 or Pure stg 2 but I think if I get 480-500whp as a DD will make the commute less boring haha. I don't know what i'd do with 650whp that 'll probably cost me another $5000 in parts/labor/tune.

what will be more of a significant upgrade, the DP or inlet?

Hopefully I can tell you that in a few weeks haha. This is just my own thoughts so anyone with more details please chime in, but inlets and DP give roughly the same increase of 30-40whp (realistically I think DP is like 25whp). However the added benefit of inlets is a decrease WGDC of the turbos so they work less hard to make the same power which prolongs the turbos longevity.
