To my utmost surprise a relative got the SAME installation done as mine at torque for 1.5K less than what i paid at EVO...lesson learnt well- always research well...

What you are saying makes sense. EVO is just another accessory store so how can they offer that much of a benefit compared to other stores like Torque, Hot tracks or Kumars who carry the same brands. EVO is a small store on a busy cambridge layout road with no parking and difficult access.

Congrats mkh on your new ICE. I am getting my Illusion Electra Comps from B&T in 2 days. This will replace Hetrz @ front stock location.

Local installer asked me to go and check JBL 100.4 4 ch amp and GZ 30T sub tomorrow. I'll listen and decide. He quoted 11K for 100.4 with bill and warranty, is this price OK?
