When I was initially interested in a GTS I was informed the clutch change on that is about £4k and for a GS about £2k. So anyone who can do a clutch change on a MC for £2k beggars belief.
SD2/3 is absolute must to set the clutch up correctly and it should be done via someone who has a lot of experience of replacing clutches. I'd suggest a good independent specialist.
You can do a clutch change yourself, and just pay for the clutch bleeding and PIS set up, which is less than an hour. I do this with the Murcielago clutch. With the Murcielago you need to do this before you put the engine+trans combo back in the car (very long cables used between the tech's computer, the gearbox and the car). You don't need to do this on the Maserati's; just do the clutch change and either pay for a tech with the computer to come to your garage, or tow your car to their garage.
I think whether its a Lamborghini, Ferrari or Maserati people get all to carried away with the "exotic" nature of them all. Fact is the same procedure is done on a selespeed alfa. The only difference is for an alfa, anyone can afford the software to do the job at home (under £200 with cables). You only need a tech's computer for one step of the job; mechanically its a simple job- same as a manual gearbox- the only difference is a magnet in the annular throwout bearing (combined throwout bearing/slave cylinder) and a sensor in the bell housing.
You also need a computer to properly bleed the brakes on any modern car with ABS to open the ABS valves; the difference with this job is you can do this even on a Maserati with a Foxtell NT520 which is again under £200, but it won't do the clutch.
I see a complete clutch kit is about £1400+VAT:

and labour is £450+ VAT
even if the throwout bearing needs replacement, its no extra labour (needs to be removed to change clutch anyway), and its a reasonable price too (£345):

I would say I think £4K is excessive, particularly when the engine doesn't have to be removed....
Honestly, clutch changes on f1/e-gear cars are not rocket science...

Pic of me doing a clutch change on my murcielago; believe me, a lot more work than. a Maserati...
apart from needing a computer to bleed the clutch and set the clutch distance, mechanically its no different to changing the clutch on any car.
