it couldnt be that much, but it sounds like a competitive price at $400 for the install and about $100 to $200 for the alignment...

adjusting the coilovers and getting them dialed in is a whole other story in terms of "suspension tuning"... most shops just install them to make them driveable, they dont do all the "extras" that make the suspension perform the level that it's capable of.

At $400 we are not corner weighting the car just setting the ride hight. Corner weighting is charged by how much time it takes there is no set fee.

^ that's a whole different sale item.

If a shop does a good job with the initial setup, it shouldnt take too long to corner balance.. most of the work I do (including corner balancing since I have a set of longacre scales at home) doesnt take more than 2 hours to do...

I paid $100 for alignment and setup the suspension from 350evo and I installed all the parts myself.
