How long did it take you exhaust installers....

To all of you that installed their own exhausts, I was just wondering how long it took you and if I should put a whole day aside to do it or not? Also, what do you think is the easiest way to do it? Thanks in advance guys.

same here. you should plan on raising your car at least 3 feet off the ground to get the rear section out and put a new one in. no fun at all.
