If they don’t know how long it takes to install the kit, they’ve likely never done it before or haven’t done it for a long time. I’d try to find someone else before I let someone with little experience do the install and tune at a premium price.

I trust them, so it's worth the premium I suppose

Install yourself and get a remote tune. Save $2k.

I already committed to them..because of Covid, I haven't had a chance to make local car friends. Would have gladly paid someone $800 to help me turn wrenches for 8-10 hrs in their garage.

I know it affects the tune because when I went through Delicious Tuning a stage 1 tune was all stock and stage 2 involved an aftermarket header. Maybe someone else can explain better? An aftermarket header also helps level out the torque dip we see, too.

My Edelbrock uninstall was $950 through a reputable shop.. that is Bay Area labor as well... I would really try to find another shop, they are charging you too much.
