It really is not all that bad. If you check out the following link by Chris Duke... before you install the chip...it makes the process all that much easier!

The hardest part is working up under the dash and making sure the computer contact is clean without removing the contact surface.

Hi ilmagil,
It's actually pretty easy, as long as you follow the instructions you won't have a problem, and the documentation is good.
The link posted above there to Chris Duke's site is a good place to take a look.
It takes a first-timer anywhere from 30 minutes to as much as an hour, if you go very slow and take a lot of time with each step. Once you do your first one, you can do your next one in about 15 minutes, it's not a tough job.
If you'd like to get any detailed info on installation, please feel free to give us a call, we'll be happy to go over it with you and answer any questions you may have.
