Did I just get hosed?

I know my Saab - and have a place I trust (and I always have you all as a gut-check), but with my 1999 Ford Windstar SE, I always feel at the mercy of the dealer. 103K miles. CE light came on - I just moved and took it to a new dealer, closer to home - they said that the upper and lower intakes needed to be replaced - by the time it was done, I spent $463 on labor and $405 on parts. I think the error code they got was EC0910. In addition to the intakes, they replaced o-rings, a IAC valve, a valve cover, and the upper air plenum. Seems like a whole lot to replace for a single code.
Thanks - Jay
1997 900S (57K miles)
