You can use this to negotiate a more fair price with the dealership and keep them honest. Most dealerships charge about 2x's the time units.
For the price they quoted I'm already thinking that way. I emailed them back and gave them the tequipment part number just to confirm we're talking the same thing. I'm wondering if he included price of new cats by mistake.

I also emailed a local independent Porsche shop I've heard good things about. I know the some of pro athletes in the area go there.
