Agreed.

8 hours is impressive though, if I were you, if the car is your daily driver, make sure you arrange for a backup car and give yourself some troubleshooting time. You'll be hard pressed to find good help if you end up as one of those people who says "I need to get to work tomorrow and I can't Idle!!?@!!?", etc.

I have been taking video of my MS2 build/install/test on a 420a turbo motor, they are on youtube as "Evan's Megasquirt Build Series" if you are interested in understanding the process. Many of my videos are building the board, etc, so if you get a pre-built system you'll save a lot of time. I suggest symtechlabs, they are very helpful.
