Depending on condition, imo, $1k is most I would pay for all that.

Considering that Injen is probably worth $1k new, seems like a ok deal, but I think $1000-1100 is the most I would consider. Never heard of Titek, no idea what they cost, etc.

For a deal from a friend, that price is okay.

If it was a deal from a good friend, it'd be more like $1000, even if new.

$1000 would be a good deal for everything brand new from a friend.
You can also get the Injen exhaust for $800 brand new. There's quite a few websites getting rid of them.

Friends should not let friends buy from friends... Could lead you to not being friends anymore.

I would shop around unless that particular combo of parts at that price is giving you a hard-on then jump on it.
