to just install the kit minus tuning I dont see more than 4-5 hours by yourself. Of course you get moody easy which I miss standing around drinking beer and laughing at. lol Very little fab work though, mostly strait forward bolt on. I cant wait to see how the tuning goes, your going to be comsumed by it for at least a week getting it tweeked in just right. Hey send me some pics of those gauges installed, pillar and all.

Give yourself a couple days. Like Mark said, there is always something that you need a different tool for or some bolt that you strip the head off or something.
