? for those of you with ecs n75 valve or those of you familiar with it.....
mine comes in today and i had a couple of questions. first, does it come with detailed install instructions. if not, does someone have any, i.e., where the thing is located, how it comes off, what tools needed, etc. also, how tough is the install and how long should it take someone mechanically (and everything else for the matter) challanged. thanks in advance.

You'll need to break the 2 single use clamps and replace with new ones. The lower connector is a squeeze type so no problem there. Don't break it like Dave did!

details
N75 vavle doesn't come with any instructions but it should come with a spare clamp.
<u>Tools</u>
Small Flathead (to remove oem clamp)
Mole Grip (to pinch bottom clamp open)
Small clamp (.5inc)
In case of UK-US confusion

<u>Install</u>
1. Take a look @ what size clamp you'll need for side of valve nearest grill. Should be around .5inc. If this is OEM you'll have to remove it and replace it with new one.
1. Remove OEM clamp(s) on right & left side of valve (nearest ECU) using small flat head to pry open the clamp (or other means if you've replaced DV)
2. Using grips, clamp OPEN the bottom clamp and move it down the hose.
3. Remove electric connection to N75
4. Carefully twist each hose off the valve so it can be removed.
5. Replace N75 (race) valve into hoses
6. Tighten up bottom clamp using grips
7. Tighten up new clamps using screw-driver (don't over tigthen as you could (can) break the plastic
8. Replace electric connection to N75
<u>WARNINGS</u>
I presume you are doing this coz you have a chip (as it was reported little or gain was had on stock ECUs)
If you have <b>ANY KIND OF NEW HOSE, or strengthened air-intake</b> Then <b>DON'T</b> put the N75 (race) valve on

thanks, well off to home depot i go
i am at work right now and i could stop by home depot on my lunch break. only problem is i have the beater with me at work and no tt. do you happen to know what size clamps i would need? or should i just grab a small one since they are kind of universal?
