labor hours guesstimate?

[Xer0449]

Hello,

I've finished collecting my parts, and now I'm trying to work out what I should expect in terms of labor. Could any of you with more experience than I chime in?

Some info on the car as is:
'12 135i DCT (N55)
BMS Intake
BMS OCC
kittyless DP

Parts going in:
PS2 w/ inlet
vrsf 7" IC w/ LICP
stg2 bucketless LPFP
3.5 TMAP sensor

Ps2 7-10 hours
FMIC 2-4 hours
Fuel pump 1-2 hours
(not sure if bucketless is different then normal installation wise)
Map sensor maybe .5 hour

you should attempt the FMIC and especially the Tmap sensor yourself i did them both with barely any prior knowledge about cars fairly easy.

With the sesnor you should barely run into any issues.

The fmic you'll see what you need to cut, you can remove the bumper in 10 mins it makes the job much easier . Then connect the lower charge pipe from the top and just throw the intercooler up in there from underneath then after you spend 20 min with a hack saw cutting some plastic peices insert each side silicone hose in as you slide the intercooler in from underneath and screw it in.
