I agree- good project for moving up the learning tree, and I know you like to climb trees.

It sounds easy, but ...
I can't make the 5th as we have visitors (and was just up in Marblehead last weekend). I guess the question is if its that easy but I still manage to screw it up, can damage occur? If so, I'd rather buy peace of mind.<p><img src="http://utenti.tripod.it/~the_simpsons_family/bart/bart5.gif" border="0">

The install is pretty straight forward. . .
BarTT, what state do you live in? I am on Long Island, let me know.
Can damage occur? If the valve is put in backwards I would guess that the pressure from the turbo would not get released and damage could occur.
Have you taken a look to see where the DV is located? You remove the main engine cover and the DV is at the back right (180 engine). I believe you have a 180TTQ, right? You are just going to be replacing each hose as you see it on the factory piece. You can even do one hose at a time to make sure you don't screw it up!
Let me know if you want to meet somewhere to do this.

I've yet to open the engine cover & the problem just began over the weekend ..
with the arrival of surginess (it was real bad last night). I'm a 225C & I think I had one honk after I did a run at 100-110 in 5th gear for a couple of miles (had to teach a lesson to some youngsters in a hopped up Civic Si ^^^^^).
I'm in North NJ but take the train into NYC while the Toad rests in the garage. I guess I should go ahead and order the Bailey and take a peak under the engine cover to see what's up. Sounds like it will be a while to get here, so there's plenty of time to take you up on your offer if it looks too daunting. Thanks for the offer & vote of confidence!<p><img src="http://utenti.tripod.it/~the_simpsons_family/bart/bart5.gif" border="0">
