Ill get the kit with the pieced together vac hose, all the seals for the 195, and i'll source my own mani and ruel rail cover. What is the "Modification" that needs to be done to the manifold? Just plugging off the one hole?

OahuMPower · Fri, Aug-14-2009, 11:27:05 PM

yep.. and I've got something we can use.. I already have that all worked out..

I also can modify the fuel rail cover as well. I know what needs to be done to fit properly.

The $195 kit is just too well thought out not to get.

You must know Eric....

Nope, no affiliation with him at all. After you do the install with Calvin using Eric's kit, you will agree with us and every other person with experience that it is most definitely worth the money. Calvin has a ton of experience and will fly thru the install, and even then you'll realize how long it takes and how you just want to get it done and are glad that you arent running around sourcing pieces.

if I really TRY and just knock it out, it's a very LONG 4- 4.5 hours...

I have no affiliation with Eric, but I've installed 5 m50manifold.com kits, 1 Eurosport kit, and 1 DIY kit....

m50.com kit is by far the easiest and quickest I've done
