hello mate, ive just stripped everything down this minute, all the new bits arrive next week, ive been messing about with the battery try, cutting it about so the pipe work goes through ok, im buying a forge map sensor pipe, ill have pics up soon, it will take a bit of messing about to fit perfect but will be worth it,

and dont bother removing headlights, there is no need and you will have to get them realined.

I have started mine on the lc and must say it looks spot on, i,m just waiting to receve the mounting tube from forge then can finish the pipework from the top of thr fmic to the throttle body. I had to take headlight out though cause of my pipework running underneath it.

hi mate, yes thats it, six of the better hoses, map pipe from forge not needed but while you are there it should be done, have a hunt for some stong brackets aswell, do you own a dremal and grinder, for the bottom of the battery tray, ive done mine but that looks like the biggest task to me, so if it was i might fit the rest with my eyes closed.

my parts should arrive tommorrow, only problem is the missus has got sunday off so will have to spend the day with her, i told her she could watch me fit it,

Blimey, how she take that? She can be your apprentice! ;) What have you made your brackets out of? and what shape are they? Going to be a while before i start mine but i want to make sure everything is spot on.
