JB4/downpipe/chargepipe install price

Just got a quote for installation on JB4/downpipe/chargepipe for 1k. Seems a bit high. Does that sound like a decent quote or am I getting ripped off ?

I paid $380 for just a downpipe install. Chargepipes are a lot easier to install and I'm sure JB4 is pretty easy as well so $1k seems a little high

For a shop that knows what they are doing JB4 is around an hour to install tops (more like 20 min), chargepipes around an hour, downpipes maybe 2.5hrs worst case.

You could easily do the JB4 and the charge pipes yourself. I would DIY them the same time. With the charge pipes off, it would make it easier to run the JB4 wiring harness. Also did downpipes myself. Downpipes I would recommend a shop to do if you're not too mechanically inclined.
