Default varraram question

I think I would be leaning towards getting this set up with the front screen of course. Here's my question, i read how easy/hard is it to install. I just had shoulder surgery and that will prevent me from doing the install myself. any suggestions? any local shops or dealer in las vegas area that can do this?
thnx

Not sure about where in Las Vegas! You could PM VegasVette(John) who lives up there and see if he know's of anyone!

Although he usually comes down to have LAPD do most his work!

I'll be having shoulder AC joint reconstruction tomarrow myself so I feel for you!

It is easy enough that if you have a couple of friends to help they could knock it out for you! Just a thought.

Thanks,Matt

Just had one installed at C.O.W, took him about an hour and a half on a lift and he had done several before. But most important is to get a computer tune for the increased air flow.

It's not that hard if you take your time. The computer will automatically adjust for the air flow.

Never installed one, but if you are patient and take your time, you can do this at home with ease. The computer will do (as stated above) with some normal driving (25-50 miles is tyipcal).
