i dont mean to offend you in any way, but you wont get all that done unless you start at 6 a.m. and work til 6 p.m....

I'm certainly not a pro mechanic and I don't have a lift, but I can do things in an orderly fashion and it took my 5 hours to do my plug wires alone (I did them the right way through the tubes and using the holders and everything)

I had a mechanic do my plugs and it took him 2-3 hours with a lift

a cold air intake will take about an hour and the coil will be simple.

i wish you luck

AdamZ1LE28 it took you 5 hours to change your plugs and wires?! Im a goofball with no CAR experince whatsover and I changed them all in an hour with no lift. I guess practice makes perfect. (no flame intended at all bro im an idiot when it comes to cars lol)

well i didnt do the plugs, only the wires....so that probly makes me look worse.

But yeah, it took me from noon til 5 to get them done. of course there was a lot of distractions during the process like friends stopping by and a meal or two, but it did take me that much time.

i tried to do my best by running all the wires through the stock looms and keeping them away from the stock manifolds. the car was up on stands so i had half decent reach access.
