I got one u can borrow dude.... stock as a rock... Im keeping it just in case I got a yellow.. But this means you'll have to disconnect your cooler??? and get the pipe from airbox to turbo? When did you get the yellow?? and what for?

pistolero i got mine with my motor but generally its a cost on labour hours and will take a whole day so it can be in excess of 700 bucks even a grand but in the end it is all worth it, i suggest you go down to performanz. i got a quote to fit my cooler i already had piping but needed a few adjustments and i went everywhere the quotes were 600, 900, etc and went to performanz and he said 400

I got mine with the cooler... I was in the same boat as you, so I decided to get a kit that was already fitted to a VL... was 2nd hand...

ay i just went through the pits like 3 weeks ago to get a yellow off. u can leave ur cooler all conected up, i had to take my BOV off but u dont need to weld it up. go to ur local performance shop and they should lend u a turbosmart cover. its just a little rubber cap with a couple of ring clamps round it. iv got one on mine now, it'l save u alot of *** round aswell.
