The shop that my friend's own charges $800, I do all of my friend's work... For the most of my good friend's FREE (which is about 10 of them) and for the ones I feel I can charge somewhere from $300-400... If you're dropping that B18C into an EG then it's VERY easy... A little bit of wiring sometimes depending on chassis.. Are you not comfortable doing it yourself??? If you're dropping it into an EK or EF then there's a little bit of wiring work which is still not that hard... That's basically how i charge... I love wiring (it has to be perfect tho, looking OE)... NO WIRES just going through the firewall... Stripping all the electrical tape/loom and then running through the OE grommets... That's just me tho... So I charge by the wiring... More wiring equals more $$$.... Good Luck... I'm sure if you are willing to do the swap yourself you'll find plenty of help here... Peace
