Who did your install ?
I had JPC install my 2200 and the supporting mods, they charged more than $1,000.00. It's worth every penny to have a competent reputable shop do the install. 1-866-jpc-race.
mine was 1000. they installed paxton kit, injectors, bap and spark plugs.
A fair price would be 800-1000. I would not charge anymore then that.
Where in NY are you?
I did the kit myself with the help of few friends over 4 days.
but the install from a pro shop should not be over a $1,000 for the blower install.
Call Revolution Automotive in MD and find out how much they charge, also call real speed in LI, NY and ask them. Those are both reputable shops. Considering you are in or around NYC judging by the prices you are getting.

We're typically around $1200 for the complete install (BAP / Injectors / Blower Kit / spark plugs / any additional stuff)
Then how about you install it yourself?
To be honest i might just do that if I can't find a reasonable deal. I'm not looking for the cheapest guy just
A legit price and Maby a place that can also Dyno tune the car while they have it . I heard install time is 8-10 hours (at a shop please correct me if I'm wrong ) and paying someone 200 per hour isn't my idea of a reasonable price. But if you would be fine paying that it would be fine for you.
There you go, than follow my suggestion and pick whoever you think is a better deal.
I had mine done by Beefcakes guy which did an awesome job!!!! But after changing things like pulley and wastegate and changing my meth setup around I would do myself. I have had the system 80% apart and putting back together, now I didn't trim the cover or radiator shroud but seeing the instructions and actual finished pieces. Also didn't splice hobbs switch or wire in BAP so depending on your past experience I would way the pro's cons... But it is doable project just take your time look over a couple install threads you should be fine.
If you have the tools and can follow instructions, do it yourself. That way, if something comes loose or isn't working correctly, you can fix it or if you're doing other mods and need to remove the blower, then you can do it.
I would do it yourself other than the tuning. In the performance world, if you rely on a shop to do the work for you, you won't know how to fix it when it breaks. Unless you have the money to take it to the shop every time something breaks or when you want to make changes, just do it yourself so you have the chance to learn how it all works.
we charge $999 for the basic install incluing injectors and bap
