Question Need Help for Engine Mod question

I have found someone to change pulley and tune my 2003 E55. What is a fair price for parts and labor? I may provide pulley and tune so what is a fair price for just the labor? I am thinking of pulling the trigger soon so need info as soon as possible!

Thanks

I'll ask one more time

Since no one responded to my previous request, I'll try again.

Can anyone tell me a fair price for a Kleemann pulley and tune installed?

How would that break down between parts and labor?

Thanks.

It may be your tone my friend. Look up Cory @ Kleemann here on the site and send him a private message.

So what was the problem with the tone of my original request (see first thread above)?

Thanks for help.

I see no issue with his tone.

Its supposed to be a 2-3 hour job, so anywhere in the $250-$350 range would seem reasonable for labor. If I remember correctly, your in the Pgh area, are you having a dealer or independent shop do the work? I'm starting to think about a pully/tune/headers for the SL, and would like to know where you got your work done. You need get to the track after you complete the install. Good luck and let us know how it turns out

The dealer's name is actually Mercedes-Benz of Pittsburgh, Shadyside is the name of the section of town it's in, and it's actually a very nice area.
