Quiet, so quiet now.


I needed the ballade as I have high lift cams which put a lot of strain on the std tct

20 mins?

You need a 10mm socket and a screwdriver. Easy peasy.

yeah had a look at the how to seems fairly simple,

airbox off,

new tct in,
pull pin,
then all back together right

Yeh, I have a k&n so didn't need to worry about the air box, depends on how much you like your hands! If you don't mind scraping knuckles you might be able to do with the air box still on. Not hard to get it off mind!

It's a very simple job, I just needed a flat screwdriver to go between the TCT and block to break the o ring seal once you get the bolts out.
