Depending on how much "gucci" (I'm referring to the amount of carbon fiber)) that I wanted to have incorporated into the design, the price that I was quoted ranged from 14k to 16k for a full system. And that was without installation . If you compare this to TPC's single turbo system that sells for around 10K, the price makes sense .

p.s. This quote also took into consideration reusing my current aftermarket exhaust system .
