Default install time?

I just bought, a forge007, magnaflow exhaust system, shortshifter, and coldair intake. How long do u think it will take me to put all these in my 02 b6. Never really worked on a Audi before, but i figure its about time to get my hands dirty. Im tired of paying people to do all this.

What kind of short shifter did you buy, i have a 02 B6 and i want one, install time depends on if you have help and the rights tools and be abel to jkack up car high enough, intake prob30 min, exhaust 2 hours maybe, short shifter could be trouble its rally tight in there, you may have to take out radio and forge 007 i have no idea ihave a 3.0

I'll say start on saturday morning. In normal case, you should able to finish all these 6hours or less but there is always something will take your time such as take the bolds out of your cat or something. Give it all day to yourself and make your sunday back-up day incase if you get so tired.

I would say start with ;
1-Cold Air Intake
2-DV
3-Exhaust
4-SS

Shortest time

Jack up car and put on stands - 5-10mins
spray all connections of the exhaust with some penentrating lube - 2-5mins
drop skid plate and do dv - 15-30mins (if you have probs with one time clamps or larger hands)
do intake, 20-30mins
by now the lube should be good and bolts can be broken easier. This would be easier with 2 people - 45-60mins
drop car back down - 5-10mins
do short shifter 60-90 mins (took me 90mins to watch over my brother and then fix his mistakes)

total time 2.5hours - 4hours

you dont, the 01+ shifter install was pretty easy. I even let my brother do most of the work, i just fixed any mistakes.
