It's fairly 'easy'... I ran into troubles though.

Apparently the stuff I bought doesn't fit... the mounting bracket for the engine doesn't seem to fit my engine... It's weird.
Also the fluid reservoir location it's going to work with the Loch 1.6 CAI. :(

Anyone have a suggestion for this? Aside from blowing more $$$ on another intake :P

So, I'm putting the manual rack back in tonight and working it out later, cos I need my car.

I don't live in Wishart, my parents do and they have a great garage :D
