How hard is it to install an STS Turbo Kit? I've heard from different people that the installation takes arund 6:00 hours for for people with experince+the right tools. Other people that have done it by themselves have told me that it has taken them a whole day 12hrs+
Can you guys give me an idea of how long it will take a person with some automotive experience(not a technician) will take with this install.

I have seen one go on with a car on a lift and tools excessable in 6hrs with the guy taken his sweet time. Someone who has never done it before on the ground I bet could do it in 8hrs.

Give yourself some extra time. If you don't run into any problems and you are doing it on the ground, call it 8 - 10 hrs if you haven't done one before. Things sometimes have al ittle trouble lining up etc, so just account for a little frustration time as always with everything. We got mine in in a weekend with a little other work done too.
