Fuelrail install
im about to install my own fuelrail, anyway before i decided i was doing it myself i took it to a mechanic, he said that it was a tough job and that it'd be $70 for him to do it. is that even a fair price, considering letting him do it means my car wont explode while pulling out of the driveway.

what are you running that you need a highflow fuel rail? unless you are pushing a serious amount of hp the stock fuel rail should be able to handle the load you are throwing at your car.
