For sure they recommend to have a second set of hands because doing it alone can be a little more frustrating.
In terms of performance and heat management I have to say, I am very impressed with how much heat it contains. Most of the heat I use to feel when opening the hood is gone. Engine bay temps dropped significantly just by the feel of it. Still have to get some logs done to see the overall IAT difference.
Here are some pics of my engine bay and the turbo blanket. Turbo blanket also helped big time keeping my catch can cooler since I retrofitted the BMS catch can to sit right on top of the turbo manifold to keep my stock airbox, which I also highly recommend to keep IATs lower.

Would you mind sharing your process for installing that oil catch can in that location? I removed mine to put the stock intake back in and would love to put the catch can where you put yours.
