Last time I put my turbo stuff back together was about 2 days, but a lot of that was the intake and all the wiring and hoses.

 

soak all exhaust bolts with PB Blaster now.

From bone stock to full turbo kit, trans cooler, three gauges, catch can took me 1 weekend. Check out my install thread.

 

since i build my own setups it varies on how much time i have to work on it

 

Basic install time will depend on a few things. lift or not, type of tools being used, experience with those tools.. When I started this years ago; we had in mind doing an install in the driveway with No power tools, or lifts.

On average 1st time installers can install one of my kits in a weekend. A couple of friends and a few beers it goes pretty quick.

Taking the front passenger tire and inner fender off is 10min of well spent time. Easy access and sure saves your back from leaning over a fender.

 

Look up Choda's build. Rick makes it easy. I would recomend bolting the turbo exuast housing on then installing the rest of the turbo. The studs are kinda hard to get to. I did mine in the driveway in a couple days.

 

I have a small turbo so it wasnt bad for me. I also grounded down a wrench to slip in and out of those tight spots.
