Sounds unbelievably high to me.........Like you said pipes are only bout 700 bucks. Depends on what else they are gonna do. Could be additional for Stage 1 and maybe dyno-tune. That still sounds very high to me. I just ordered my pipes and I am getting V&H comp series pipes, the V&H fuel pack, and Screamin Eagle intake all for about 1200 bucks. If you install the pipes yourself you'll probably save a bunch of that money. It's really not that hard. Then bring it in for the Stage 1. i don't think you need a dyno-tune for just pipes and maybe not even the Stage 1. Ask the shop or dealer, I assume, to itemize what the charges are.

My local dealer quoted me 1800 to do it. and I just bought the stuff did it myself. I only asked them how much because I was curious. The pipes and air cleaner are way too easy to replace yourself

like everyone has stated...laugh at the stealers face and get the pipes somewhere else...google the pipes you want and i am sure you will find them cheaper...might as well get the air cleaner you want to so when you take it in for the stage 1 download it will be worth it....i say about $650 for pipes, no more tahn $250 for air cleaner upgrade, and about $200 for the stage one download....thats about $1100...the pipes and air cleaner you can do yourself... EXTREMELY easy!!!!

$2,200 is a lot of money, if it is for the pipes and cost to install them! I purchased a TTS MasterTune system, TTS USB Cable Kit, D&M Custom Twister Air Cleaner (DM-425), D&M Hardware (JT-02112), and Martin Bros. Shockwave pipes for a total of $1,807 (shipping included) and installed it all myself.
