You could get better results, IMHO, for half the money from Scott/Hillside or Kirby/VeeTwin Performance. Before you pull the trigger, give those guys a call, chat them up and I think you will change your mind about how you spend your $$.

I was thinking the same thing about total. Seems extreme for not even replacing the flywheel assembly.
