I managed to finally delete my n249 valve this evening! I ran into problems almost immediately by snapping one of the nipples on the N112 valve, meaning I've had to just bypass that for the time being!

I didn't take any pics of the process but I've got a before & after (I'm aware that my engine bay is disgracefully dirty!)

Before:



After:

So what I've spend the last 2 hours doing isn't progress? :huh: :grin:

The bay will be cleaned up when I get some silicone boost pipes & TIP. I'll look at adding some more shiny parts as well & give it all a good scrub up :wink:

As far as progress goes, I've got a new gear knob & some more carbon bits in the interior & some new headlights should be arriving tomorrow :cool:

No, I said you suck due to no progress PICS.

Was only kidding about the engine... its not that bad and so what if it was.

New headlights?.... Ooooo. Bet they've got dark bits in them.
