Yeah, i don't think the # of people matters, it's just how much time you want to spend on the details that affect the quality of the install, shouldn't take no more than 10 hrs either way.

Haha I was just about to say 6 hours too. I could probably do it myself in 8 with an air ratchet.

Re: How long to install greddy kit on 1997 civic ex coupe (5thgen)
yea took me around 6 hrs. then i spent the rest of the day just checkin everything and double checking and making sure it ran fine.
it'll go alot faster if u start taking stuff off the day before u get the kit. i took off my header, downpipe, intake pipe, took out my ecu, loosened the ac fan, removed bumper, drained oil, loosened oil pan, etc. just find instructions online and you'll get an idea of what you'll need to take off. that alone can save you a coupla hrs plus u can spot and fix problems like stubborn/rusted bolts and nuts beforehand.
good luck
