Default Any RIPP'd Pentastars?

So I just ordered the RIPP S.C. earlier this week, and should have it soon. I hear that the instal isn't terribly difficult, but extremely time consuming for the Pentastar with the auto tranny. In fact, Rebel Off Road charges about 14 hours for the instal, and they've done a bunch of them. Anybody out there do their own install on their 2012+ JK? Any write ups yet?

This is for the older engine. Apparently that instal is only about 6 or 7 hours long. The Pentastar 3.6 litre is said to be a lot more complicated.

Thank you for your help anyway though

Haha no worries. I've looked up and down the interwebs and I haven't seen many people mention/document the instal itself.

For our 2012-2014 system, allow 8-10 for install.
