On your own, i`d say about an 8/9, intercooler off, turbo heatshield off, downpipe etc off, propshaft off, driveshafts out, gearbox cradle off, then you have to seperate from the block and make sure you dont drop it, be prepared for a bolt that doesn`t want to come off(mainly turbo heatshield or downpipe), soak them with some wd40 or simaler the day before as it helps sometimes, might be a bit of a task but as long as you have plenty of time you should be ok, good luck
