It took me less than a day working on the drive to do it, drove the front end on ramps (easier to access the downpipe and heat shields) and worked over the wing.
It won't need mapping 'as soon as its changed' just block the BCS pipe so your safe on wastegate boost until its mapped unless you want to try it 'at risk'.
