If you can do a tune up you should be able to do that without any problems. But, I'm sure there are lots of people here who will do it for cheap if you're looking for help. You're still looking at coming out waaaay ahead of the dealer. I'm not sure where that $636 came from, if the IACV is $200. That's like $436 labor. Is there anything else on the quote you got?

Nope thats just about it. Thats a dealer for you. Yes i would rather somebody with more experience do it. I did check the price on majestic honda and its around $200. Now i just need to find somebody to do it cheap. If you know anybody in the Nova area let me know.

is there any difference with this http://www.amazon.com/Acura-Honda-Ci.../dp/B002PKFZ7G

rather than the honda version? i know some parts are made alot cheaper such as radiators. but does this matter for a iacv.
