With the plug and play connectors, they will save a few hours from not soldering the connections, they still should give you some money back off of what the book says. They told me they used an existing hole to bolt it to, you could fab it ahead of time and install yourself, pay if you have to, but don't go without it.

I checked the install on mine the other day. The lower sensor was installed so that the wiring is towards the radiator instead of the A/C compressor, also along with everything being soldered and having heat shrink installed.

Seems that who ever installed this knew what they were doing. Which is a good thing.

You mean , besides a pain in the butt, It's called Stage -1 some times, it's a tune for the SS motor, with some new sensors, makes it go 19 to 21 lbs of boost, Fun when it works right.

"SS fan" has a simple but very effective bracket installed on his car.
Here's the one I put on mine. Just to give you an idea of a different way to do it.
