FCD and G-Valve Fitting .. beers on offer!!

Post by Castlegrayskull »

how easy are FCD's to fit?

I have one (with fairly detailed fitting instructions) .. and a g-valve sitting around waiting to be fitted... but i guess i'm scared of my engine bay ... and scared of cocking it up and killing my car!

I would like to get round to fitting my turbo hoses at the same time?

anyone fancy helping me out for a few beers?

I live in the northeast

cheers
Dave

Does that include breaking the car ???? :lol:

:) seems i have the same G-Valve and FCD showing for sale on the site in your profile!

should be an easy task for you.

I'm sure i could manage myself .. but would rather do it under supervision .. if you know what I mean!

the only part i'm missing is some silicon tubing to connect the G-Valve in with!
