Default Dont take this seriously but i would say about 6-8 hours. Ive never done the install.
Ko4 can be done in about 4 hours.

Default is it pretty much the same as a ko4 swap only you have the new manifold?
and the cat to turbo connector piece they give you. All of the oil and coolant return lines are the same right?

Default 2hrs! Bah! No one you can remove a manifold and turbo in 2hrs and put a new one
correctly. I'll eat my hat if you show me otherwise.
