Ignition timing (well, it could be about 1,500 other things, but this is the most likely, and easiest to check.)

What is your question? Are you asking if the shop really quoted you 1100 Euros? (dollars, pesos, Pounds, ...) Are you asking if $1,100 is the right price based on your incredibly vague description?

If you can move the suspension components by moving the tires side to side, you've really trashed the suspension (probably ball joints in addition to the bearings, but I'm not there to look at it). And because you got that far before you took it to the shop, I'm going to suggest you have a shop deal with it; this is not a place to learn from zero.

If you think the price is wrong, you'll be much better off taking it to another shop. Asking that question here will get you a lot of opinions, but none will be too helpful since we can't see your 4runner.

A dead spot in acceleration could be a host of issues, anywhere from clogged injectors to low compression. Sounds like with the suspension issues you got your 4Runner needs some help. I don't know enough about it to help but there are plenty of people who can, they just need more information.

It does it when this thing is plugged in at the top of the engine but when I unplug it it runs fine
