How Long Should These Mods Take?
I know there's a certain moderator looking at this thread right now looking which kid of 'mod' I'm posting about so he can move this thread to the proper subforum...
But I've got a bunch of mods planned tomorrow, and I'm wondering how many I can get done and how much of Sunday I'm going to need.
The list (in order, everything comes off first):
1) MGW Shifter
1.5) Grabberpony shift ****
2) Pypes mid-muffler system plus gas tank heat shields
3) FRPP Suspension, springs only
3.5) then of course my new wheels/tires
4) WebElectric sequentials
Whatcha think, how long should I plan?

Shifter 2 hours
Shift **** 5 minutes
Mufflers and heat shields 3 hours
Suspension 3 to 4 hours
Sequentials 1 hour
Mounting wheels 1 hour
10 to 11 hours (if beer is involved probably longer)!

Shifter, it took me 15 mins on my fox body, but I know its diff on S197's. Id say 1-1.5 hours for the shifter.
springs should take 1.5-2 hours.
catback, 2-3 hours.
So 6-7 hours if you are a decent backyard mechanic.

I got it all done yesterday except the mid mufler system. I couldn't get stuff to fit and moved on to finish the suspension. I'm going to retackle the muffler system today. Sometimes you just need a fresh start.

I've got a little NVH to investigate. Overall, fantastic. Maybe a little louder than anticipated. I'm just not sure yet. I'm not thrilled, but not disappointed either. I may try putting the stock H-pipe back on. I like it, I'm just undecided on how much I like it.
