Depends on skill.

mine took about 8 hours at a local shop...had a feller put it in, he never installed anything like it before but he has a racing background so managed quite well. But when he installed it he took a peak to see what people were charging for install time and it was ranged from 7-10 hrs.

You should be able to get it in about 8 hours maybe less your first time. The part that took me the longest was getting that mother @!#$ POS brake booster vaccum tube line out of the way. It is bolted to the block and the sharp square tab welded to the tube seemed to get caught on every single @!#$ wire on the way out. You will have to wiggle and twist and wiggle and twist it some more to get it out.

I know this is off topic...but wade I can't believe your selling your car, its awsome! Where the s/c bracket screws into where the factory intake was it had corroded and took him an hour to clean it out to get the s/c bracket bolt down though.

How do you figure that?? This thread is about the ld9, which is what I was talking about. The LD9 kit took me 3 1/2. My ecotec took 8
