it's as difficult as any other management kit that is not plug&play. You need to figure out what sensors you need, what ignition you want to run, and make the loom with relays and fuses. The rest is pretty easy

ok my last part of the cooling system arrived today , so rad is all plumbed in and full of water (no leaks yet , will see once its got hot )
fitted my turbo oil feed pipe :
not 100% happy with routing , but will do for now to start her up.
plumbed in the clutch resivour :
i used silicon pipe :? who thinks brake fluid will do nasty things to it ?
i have left a small piece of silicon in some fluid , will have a look in the morning :lol:
i bought a res of a bike ,its small .. but only has to feed the clutch ??
I also got the throttle cable in , its all fitted .. just need a nipple :shock: of some kind to clamp the cable to the pedal.
also nearly done on the turbo oil outlet pipe to sump ... maybe tommorow ...
