Install time for MREV2 and Iso thermal Spacer
 

My MREV2 and 5/16th Copper Iso thermal spacer have both arrived. Now my question is, how long will the install take? My guess is that I don't have the time to do it before a road trip I have to take this weekend.

I'm not completely incompetent, but I do tend to work a bit slowly. I think it is simply an large supply of innate caution.

I'm sure that the nice folks at MD could give me a figure, but I'd like to hear about long it has taken those of you who, like me, have more "modest" wrenching skills.

umm, well you should definately be able to finish it in a day...its really not that much work...So GET IT DONE before the road trip! You will thank me later ;-D

about 2 1/2 hours

^^
Bout how long it took me, maybe a little longer. I took my time on it and double checked a lot of things. You will def notice a difference after install so do it before the trip!

Thanks for the feedback. Since MD says it takes 1.5 hours, I figure it should take a slow guy like me 3 hours. Since I have to work tomorrow, and leave Saturday morning, I think I'll wait. Plus, I'd like to get a baseline dyno before I make the change, just for my own information. There is a shop about 3 miles from my house that has a Dynapack. They are convenient to do baseline pulls. However, the first slot they have open isn't for over a week so I may wait until then unless I get too impatient beforehand.
