Average Price for IC Pump Install?

Hello,

I was wondering the average price for intercooler pump installation if I bring them the pump, so I don't get ripped off.

I've never taken my previous cars to a shop before cause I usually do stuff myself, but my parents made me promise them that if they got me the car, I would have everything done by a shop, haha. So..those of you who are gonna say it's easy and to do it myself, I can't..haha

Also, when I buy the Johnson pump, do I need to buy anything else or is it straight pnp?

Thanks

It is very easy to repalce.. I would say 50 bucks should cover it .. 1/2 hour max for anyone that has done at least one before..

Too funny!

I got the same talking to from my family, after like the 5th expensive thing I broke when trying to do things myself. I dunno what it is, but I have a knack for being ham-fisted.

It can be depending on if the person is using a lift or not. Rewiring the pump so it stays on all the time may also take about a half hour to do properly (with a relay). In a 600/65 you also have to bleed the system. If you can get all that done in 2 hours or less, you're doing good.

what size of the pump did you buy ? cm30 or c090 ? I dont know if you need the relay for cm30 but about cm90 or c090 yes you have to .
