Message	I was going to have my spark plugs changed while i did an injecter and ECU upgrade. I was told it was an hour labor ($95) to install new plugs while replacing the injectors and one and a half hours to install a new ecu. Is that fair pricing or is the shop trying to screw me? "Don't be afraid to buy the best because you will always be happy with it."
