Innovate twin screw: It literally is two pieces and two bags of hoses and fittings. Skill level and comfortability will determine the time but it really couldn't get easier than bolting on a positive displacement supercharger lol.

I think Robi's shop has gotten the install time down to 3-4 hrs max

I would bet I could do my next vortech in 6 hours or less. Mine would've been sub 8 if I wasn't fucking around with my kids and face booking.

The ONLY way to get rid of it is with headers. I don't know any of the tuners that can get rid of it any other way.

If I was gonna recommend a budget set of mods at any level it would include headers, a tune, and sticky tires

It is true the headers with a tune eliminate the dip quite well. But you do need the tune.

The innovate kit with a tune gets rid of the dip too. I have stock header and cats. Can't show the dyno plot yet but you can get an idea from the 2 auzzie dynos released so far.

I would bet a decently skilled person could install the non intercooled innovate kit in 2 hours or less. The intercooled one might take a bit more time because of routing any plumbing for the liquid/air IC.
