Anyone in Central NJ help me with REVi install?

So it took longer than I would have liked to get my intake but I finally got it. Unfortunately, I'm now at TCNJ in Ewing and have no tools to put it in... Is there anyone nearby who'd be willing to help me out with the install? I'd like to get it done soon. I'd appreciate it.

You need a 10mm wrench, Phillips screwdriver, small slot screwdriver, 10 and 12mm sockets and a set of small needle nose pliers. That's it. It takes about 2 hrs to install both the REVi and the duct...........

Hey guys - I'm picking up a rp high-flow cat on Wednesday in Fort Lee. Let me know if you're going to do this tomorrow (or soon). I should be able to handle it myself, but I don't have the best of tools. I would also like to check out the intake/duct as possibly my next mod.

I'm buying that duct (Thanks!) so the install will have to wait till I get it. I MAY be able to run home this Sat and my dad has got plenty of tools and stuff so perhaps I can host a little install BBQ if anybody else has some parts they want to put in. Keep in mind this will be last minute as I am an RA at my college and the freshmen are moving in on Thurs so I'm "techincally" supposed to be here the whole weekend.

Rich I installed mine a couple weeks ago. I could help you out since I'm only 3 floors above you haha. I've removed the bumper twice already so I'm pretty familiar.

Tomorrow I'm free after 3:00. Thursday I'm free before 2 and after 7 but I think I'm going out at night. Friday I'm free after 10AM. I'd really appriciate if you could help me out. Kmg wants to help too. I'm an RA for the freshmen and he lives 3 floors up from me. Sadly, as a freshmen, he's been separated from his 8 for the rest of the semester.

Btw, you do know that you get a 2 week parking pass each semester, right? I think it costs like $10 but that was always worth it to me. Also, you can try finding other people who don't have cars and have them try to use thier pass on your car. I got away with keeping my car here for about 10 weeks before they figured out the same car was being registered on campus under like 5 different names. I didn't get in trouble, just the person I sent in to get the pass for me was told she couldn't use it on that car.
