Tunnie's was about 2 and a half days by the time we'd finished calibrating and mapping it... But we didn't exactly rush ::)

As said in the other thread... If shifts allow I'm willing to lend a hand :y
Whatever it is... I didn't do it

A lot of Bacon butties were consumed  ;D

What saved time though is having pre-drilled, tapped, and injector mounted manifold. If you have a weekend in mind, let me know see what i can do here, can bring it here, more space to work on it, and if it rains push it in the garage  :y

My spare 2.2 inlet manifold is around (tunnie ?). The idea is you can get it drilled and nozzles fitted without putting your car off the road. Then the whole job can be done in stages, a day at a time, with the car still usable in between.

I used to be indecisive; now I'm not so sure...

Teilo speaks quite highly of them actually. Only trouble is, I think they fit the nozzles without removing the manifold :o :o

Yep, which is why IIRC they say they can do your install in 1 day. :y
Having seen with my own eyes the amount of swarf generated during drilling, and even allowing for the drill bit being well greased to 'capture as it cuts' , I wouldn't want to take the chance of getting any in my engine. :-X
If it ain't broke keep fixing it 'til it is!

I don't trust installers - that said I hope someone can help me check the calibration at Newent as I is using a bit too much gas.

Unfortunately I'm not going but I think Kevin is. Have you got the software and lead?

Well if we gat the correct size hole cutter for the boot floor.....

And don't forget there's a fair bit more work with the number plate filler. Bumper on and off at least half a dozen times and welding the cross member bracket etc....

Plus it took us a while to suss the vap mounting which will be a dodle on the dbw engine...

All things considered....time for curry on Sunday night as well...calibrate on the way to the restaurant.  :y
