Hi

Are you a PCA member? If so you should be getting a 10-15% discount on parts. $5K seems high, $3500-$4000 seems more realistic. Since you are in FL, check with SUNCOAST to find out what they would charge. May be worth the drive.

on your regular 3.4, the price sounds about right if you want it installed at the dealership. The exhaust kit itself is around $3000 or so, install from a dealer will be around 1600-2000 so the quote of $5000 seems about right for a PSE installed.
Obviously, you can shop around the labor to install it but the exhaust will be around $2,900-3,000 or so (suncoast, etc). Hope this clears up any confusion.
Ive been noticing alot of confusion with people quoting prices for retrofitting the PSE on the carreraS and creating confusion for the 3.4 guys. The install for the 3.4 is definitely more involved as it requires removal of the drivers seat, and prety much all of your rear interior (just to get a simple 2-wire harness from the engine bay through the firewall and into the cabin).
If you decide to install it yourself, or taking it to an Indy, just keep in mind that you might save more on the labor portion of it, but unless you/they have access to a PIWISII programmer, you will have to end up taking it to the dealer anyways to get the PSE button programmed/activated (and they'll most likely charge you 1 hr minimum at shop rate)
Good luck with the install! I love my retrofit kit and wouldnt hesitate to do it again if i had to.

It also reduces the risk of having too many parties involved in the installation process and having a "he said/she said-finger pointing gangbang" if things go awry...
