Default 07 mustang question on costs for Dyno & Tune

I need some help determining if the following quotes are in line with what I should be paying for a professional NOS install, Tune, Dyno test and 4.10 Gear swap. The Tuner comes very recommended and I am sure they do good work but the numbers seem a little high. All the parts and etc. are being supplied by them, I am sure I could find them a little cheaper but probably would pay for it in the labor anyway.
I have no experience with this so maybe its accurate but you guys have either done this all yourself or had it done so I need your help.
You guys tell me.

Zex Wet NOS System- $640.00
Install NOS- $1000.00
Dyno Tune- $600.00
Bracket= $250.00
FRPP 4.10 Gears- All bearings, fluid & etc.- $650.00

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I live in Toledo, Ohio so anyone around this area that has had some of this work done or could recommend a tuner would be greatly appreciated. Again, I got the name of this Tuner from this Forum and again, they supposedly do good work.

Let me know.

The gear ihnstall and the dyno tune are pretty close to qoutes I have gotten. The others seem damn high though,especially the $1,000 for the nos install.

I thought so too. I have read alot of guys say the Zex system is one of the easiest to install yourself but I am not willing to take the chance myself. I just thought 1000 was high too and then the additional charges for the tune and the dyno! Any idea on what the charges for this should be?

I'd say those prices are high especially if the nitrous does not include a window switch and purge install.
