Just get the pinout version. It's 200 dollars cheaper and really isnt that hard to do IMO... I'd say it takes me 45 mins from start to finish including assembly/disassembly of the car

well then you are expedient. I've worked on cars as a hobby for years... I am not afraid to do something as simple as installing a chip. It took me at least an hour to install the ECU with the plug and play harness already pinned out. Being careful, not breaking plastic and making sure everything is fitted correctly and tight takes a rather significant amount of time.

If you are going to do the install alone, give yourself about an hour and a half in my opinion.

btw the JB3 is intense! I love it.

Just take your time with the install. Count those pins carefully. Burger provides EXCELLENT instructions that pretty much anyone can follow.
