pretty easy mod. I think I had my car apart then back together and running in 2.5-3hrs. No point in rushing it though if you're unsure on anything.
If you're recently driven the car, the fuel rail might still have pressure in it.

Take your time, and double check everything when done. Easy install and you will love the results.

Mark everything you take off so you know exactly where it goes when you put it back together. Use a piece of tape and write stuff down. When I took my supercharger bolts off, I placed them on the bench exactly in order so they went back in the exact holes I took them out of. You never know if one may be threaded a bit different than another. Make sure you use a torque wrench on the supercharger bolts. I can't remember for sure, but I believe they are 18 ft/lbs each. Someone chime in if you know for sure.

Take your time and have fun.

I feel the same way. People ask me about my mods and my answer is always "blot on's". People always look at me like I'm stupid :shrug:
