I just read a couple of articles about the JCW kit being released in September in the UK (I think it's the UK).
They both talk about a 4 hour install. I guess they're upping the time to accomodate the long flash times. This might make it tougher to negotiate a fixed 2 hour install when you go to haggle with your MA (or risk a bill for 8 hours it takes to load the ECU or reflash).
Or are UK hours like gallons? 2 of theirs = 1 of ours.
