Please keep in mind that, while its great you do it yourself, not everyone can or wants to do it themselves. So, for a shop to do it, $50 is not that bad for a full syn, and a lot of cars take more than 5Qts. My 5.0 Firebird takes 8qts. His Infiniti probably takes more than 5Qts as well. Though i wouldnt be surprised if the local Pep boys only puts 5Qts in his engine, since that seems to be the industry standard.
