I would but I bought it in the Forum and not from them - so I thought that would be taking the p*ss a bit

ive just put one on my MY99 so i would assume its the same fitment to yours.

If you want i will e-mail pics and knock out a quick set of instructions, unfortunately im not 'geeky' enough to be able to construct my own website yet

Couldn't be simpler m8.
Disconnect the small (10mm ish) vacuum hose from the top of your original. Disconnect the large (25mm ish) recirc hose from the bottom, bit fiddly getting to the springclip. Undo the 2 12mm bolts. Remove old dump valve and gasket.
Insert blanking bung into recirc hose and replace springclip (I actually swapped the springclip for a jubilee clip for ease of use). Place new gasket and dump valve in situ. Tighten 12mm bolts. Attach vacuum hose. Job done.
Sorry, I dont have any photos.
Hope this helps.

Mark

guys, what colour spring are you using ?

I got a red & a blue with mine. red was squeeky, blue doesnt woosh until high rpm. so i ordered the tuning pack from forge, now have a yellow fitted - wooshes a lot easier.

I had a forge VTA on my my98 with the yellow and it used to chatter a lot more than this one.
