sounds like the vts is coming along nicely mate. black as well. what a good choice smileys/smiley20.gif smileys/smiley2.gif

you might have a few problems when fitting the bmc as i experienced. make sure you have the re-sizing bush as the pipe from the throttle body will NOT connect straight to the cda unit without this part.

if you get stuck, then pm me and i can guide you through it.
