brocks set up questions
I want to get a Brock's megaphone 4-1, pc and the TRE set up. Has anyone installed this themselves. I am pretty technical. I want to install it myself. Is it pretty easy? Also are there any turning or scraping issues with this pipe.

know problems with the pipe setup. Good instructions and it doesnt scratch the ground. Good clearance. If you decide to buy a tre I have one still in the box that ill sale for 45bucks. I got it and then waited to long to send it back.

I didn't completely remove the rad. Just removed a bolt or two, loosened a couple of others and rotated it forward. Worked fine - plenty of room.

Smeg is easy to install, thats what I have on mine. Save your money on the TRE and remove the flies.

I installed a PC and Brocks Gen3. If I can do it, anyone can!!!! Thanks to raptor 14, he gave VERY detailed illustrtated directions (down to the last screw on the plastics). I found no need to drop radiator, (of course I did the Gen3 not smeg). The directions can be found at:

Me too, installing a TiForce system. I removed the lower body panels, undid the bottom radiator bracket and also removed the horn. This allowed me to swing the radiator forward without undoing any coolant hoses. There was just enough room to get a socket on an extension with a universal joint up to the exhaust flange nuts.

Per Raptor 14's directions, I didn't have to do anything to the radiator to remove the stock exhaust, or install the header for the Gen3.
