Seems low. However, if the shop is slow and needs the $750, they may do it. I would really look to see if the shop is qualified and has done this repair on a Porsche before. I wouldn't want my car to be his maiden voyage.

my IMS was the maiden voyage for my Indy. But my shop is a highly experienced one specializing in all vintage of Porsches and other high end cars. An IMS swap for a seasoned pro is a piece of cake. I've seen guys do this job in their backyards without a lift, without specialized tools, working solo. One guy even made his own RMS tool using pvc tubing. Granted the whole job took him over a week.
