Thanks!

Shall i just post all of my pics?  then anyone can print them off ready for doing the job...?

I'd also be keen to know where people put the ECU, i bolted mine opposite the pollen filter and fed the wires through a large rubber grommet to the left into the HBV area.

I put mine under the airbox - where the self levelling pump would be if I had one. These seem to be the only options really.

Correct. If you look up under the airbox, just in front of the front driver's side wheel there is a load of space up there. Jay W fitted the ECU and vapouriser there.

So did you drill and tap from the underside of the manifold then i take it???
Looks a good job tho, may try that on my other manifold, once i get the car all up and running.

That's exactly where i put my vapouriser, i do have a water leak at the moment, so it'll be nice and easy to work with the car on stands.

Nope drilled from the top in the same direction as the petrol injectors, then countersunk the hole from the bottom.  Don't forget to use some threadlock....

Is that a good idea???
Would this not restrict the airflow somewhat????
And you would have to cut a big hole in it to get the wires out :-/
