Roush was probably the most detailed instructions you will find. It still took an experieinced tech 3 days to do mine. Plus, you need that time to get your CPU back from Roush anyways.

well, depending on the SC (like the Rousch) you are working with fuel delivery, electronics, heating and cooling, ignition, manifold, etc. etc. Tech Recommended would be an understatement IMO. This would not be an install that I would want anyone to 'figure out' while doing it. It also helps A LOT if you have the right array of tools. my mechanic brother would be like 'yeah, man lets DO IT this weekend' but he is an A&P mechanic so he works complex engines and mechanical systemsall the time. He still would nottune it...canned tune = less probsfor sure, but who would troubleshoot it?
It's not rocket science! I installed the whipple HO in 3 very laid back days. I wouldn't recommend trying to rush through it in a 2 day weekend. Before this all I'd done is suspension and changed fuel injectors on a 1989 cavalier. A monkey could do it, honest.

On second thought, it's probably a bad idea to let a monkey beat on a fuel tank with a hammer.
