It was roughly $3700 at an indy shop in Atlanta for me (varies by location). They did all genuine BMW parts. I recommend getting the oil pan gasket done at the same time if you haven't already. You will save a ton on labor doing that.

However, I would recommend getting some with upgraded wastegate parts, like from RB Turbo. Even new stock parts will have looseness in the wastegate, at least they do in my case. I chose the stock parts at the time because the shop could offer a 2-yr warranty on parts and labor, but would not warranty labor on the RB Turbos.
