first time i did it i needed 3-4 hours
the second 2 hours
after i did an exhaust + MD spacer in 1:30 hour ,my point it will get easier when you do it
safety first : never get under the car without jackstand and making sure the car is stable (coz you may need to use your muscle down there)
WD 40 on all bolts and muffler hangers + 14mm wrench + breaker bar +extension`s for the HFC bolts and Patience Patience Patience
if you search in here you`ll find alot to know about installation problems , you be addicted to modding after you do the first one your self ,,all the best

Blue light kills your night vision... Green or red is better (there's a reason NVGs display green) It may look cool but it's more distracting than useful.
VERY nice exhaust, btw... Have you considered a bumper tuck to show off those cans?
