Mine took a weekend because of grinding down the coil pack towers, and what actually took teh longest was figureing out how to put the PCV valve, wasted a few good hours with that...

Soldiering the new injector plugs takes a while too.

lol i wouldn't mind helping you, but I dont know where to put your car as I live in apt complex :P

I wouldnt attempt this without someone who knows more or less what to do or you might end up without a car for a few days, Grinding down teh coil pack towers is tricky.. Go too much and you make a hole in teh VC, go too little and it doesnt sit right.

haha..damn. that's what i did, went too far and made a hole into the rear valve cover..had to take the whole thing off and then jbweld the hole

dont use a dremel for it, i would say it's best to go nice and slow and use those hand saws for metal

What hose do you know of that can deal with super-hot exhaust gasses??

You have to get that piece from a DE-K engine or you can buy it from the dealer. Either way it's mandatory to have if you want a functioning EGR system.
