[s-cars] RE: Labor Estimates for RS2 Conversion -Part II

[Robert Pastore]

Bill:

I was just giving "book" hours for OEM R&I.
How much of the 12 hrs was spent looking for that little metal clip that
disappeared?   On beer breaks?  On working the wrong end of the turbo oil
line?

None of it matters anyway -- you did it and the car runs like an Andersen
accountant runs from "Bubba", his new cellmate.

BTW, back to 17 inches of vacuum today....Taka's Japanese magic only lasted
1 day.  I need to bring him with me to a dyno day.

FWIW, I must be half fast as it took me more than 12hrs :)
And if I had had to make all three custom wrenches another couple hours.

As a now experienced EM installer, I am sure I could do it mucho
faster.  First time I tried to be real methodical.
Cutting the bolts was a breeze w/Dremel cut  off wheel..  Measure 3
times cut once.
A real fun memory:)
