Just plug and play. If they are sending you one of their canned tunes, just select the tune and load it, takes all of 30-60 seconds.

I haven't had my car without the blower for a while now, but when I was some what stock and just loaded a tune there was a difference you could tell.

Flash tuners are easy to load. The obd connection is under the dash on the driver side. It doesn't take long to do. If you do your gears I'd probably bring your car to a tuner or ask someone what parameters you should set your tuner to. As far as a performance gain, it will depend on your other mods.

if you have gears you just select which gears you have when downloading the tune to the car, itll explain better in the instructions

If you are getting the canned tunes from SCT you will have the option to change the gear ratio. It just a simple reload of the canned tune with the correct gear option selected and it will retune your car with the correct calibration for the speedo.
