I must admit I'm seriously thinking of a visit to my indie with de-cat pipe in one hand and my credit card in the other and ask him "can you fit this please, btw I've already loosened the lower two nuts, I'll see you in an hour "
The top nut is an absolute to get to, so it will be worth it Never get mad - get even !!

I didn't fit mine I've neither the patience nor the know how ?
I'll tell you what though........... Its a different drive !
Throttle response is improved, backing off is cleaner as there is no diving under And pick up is less laboured and crisper !
It's no two seater sports car and nor do I want it to be but its a nicer drive all round and economy has improved by at least 2 MPG !
I can't say I notice the turbo that much ? I certainly can't hear it singing !Only dead fish go with the Flow !
