Brake Power Booster. (Whiistle from dash area when decelerating, or when releasing brake ped, but not while brake ped is pressed.) Mechanic says over $900. I've seen the part online for less than $150. What am I missing? (5-cyl)

A FACTORY BRAKE BOOSTER, PART ALONE CAN COST UP TO $600.00, JUST FOR THE PART. NOT TO MENTION THE LABOR FOR THE INSTALLATION. ITS NOT AN EASY REPAIR, IT TAKES A FEW HOURS TO REPLACE IT. $150.00 FOR A BRAKE BOOSTER SOUNDS INCORRECT, THEN AGAIN IF ITS AFTERMARKET, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.
