They can use the stocker because it reaches. Well it did on my torana anyway.

The stock cable loops around to meet the T/B, with an aftermarket plenum the length needed is about the same.

Ill go with that guy that aaron posted. Ill get some measurements this weekend and order it next week.

haha, its a pretty long list.

We got the XB for free so I gave it to a mate. He works on it for about an hour every few months.

The EA and my maverick are the last cars Im gonna own until I move into my own place. I might buy another motorbike in the meantime though, my CBR is on its last legs I think.

Gotta run 10's in the EA, its been a long time coming.
