Installing Silicone Boost Hoses

Folks:
Is this a do-it-yourself or Porsche mechanic job?
If so, how much/fair price to install via the mechanic route?
Thanks!
TCB

What does that mean?
I thought that this was a forum to explore both, I am asking for help, it works both ways, if you aren't willing to help then don't respond.

Its a DIY'er....

I'm guessing a mechanic would charge 2 hours for the hoses....

..then again i might be wrong; speed gallery quoted me 2 hours for just the f-hose

Chill, he's just asking for your experience in this kind of stuff ...

I don't think he was trying to be a dick with that question. He was trying to gauge what your experience with the car has been. To an engine builder this would be a cake walk, compare that to a newer car person it might not be as easy.
