hey guys, I've been quoted $1500 to install the EFI 2TG into my celica. It consists of $1000 for physical install, EVERYTHING involved, which I believe includes the fuel pump and stuff throttle linkage stuff. The other $500 is for the wiring loom preperation. So I drop my car off and they supply the engine and kit ($1500) pay them $1500 and drive away with the car.
So what I'm asking is does this seem reasonable. For me it seems a bit high $1000 for install, this is an engine that Bolts straight IN, so how come it costs so much??? And as for the $500 to wire up the ECU how COME ? as far as I know its just a join the dots that should take A day or two for an amateur. Ppl prolly say I should just do it myself and stop winging, But I don't have the time. So what I am posting for is HELP.
Is anyone experienced and wanting to do it for me? (will pay of course)
Does anyone know someone that will be interested in performing it for me?
Anyone know where to get it done cheaper ?
Any help would be greatly Appreciated plz. I can make it worth your while if you help me out. I work alot and simply don't have the time to do the hunting. send me an email at gumshooe@hotmail.com (I check it several times a day)
Cheers, Jacob

$1500 sounds pretty average. The $1000 component isn't that high when you consider the fuel system; remember they will have to install a fuel pump, a surge tank and EFI hoses in addition to actually bolting the engine in. None of this is hard to do, but the labour component really adds up with all these pissy little jobs.

What's the performance on a 2TEGU like? I'm considering putting a 4AGZE in my TA22 but with the rising cost I may go a simpler option. Can you Supercharge it easily?
