If it has already got the flange fitted to the SSQV all you need to do is simpley unplug the standard recirculating valve, put this in it\'s place and block off the unused hole in the air box (this is du to not using the recirc system!!!)

ok i think i found the right place i conected it up to the lower pipe that goes back into the airbox?? and i just blanked of the hole in the airbox. but it seems to be no closing the valve when i accelerate when the engine warms up but when its coldish it runs grand???

Afraid to say that you have removed the charge relief valve mate!!! it\'s the brown denso uni that sits closest to the air box you want to replace!! follow that pipe back and it should go to the section of the Y pipe that the 2 turbos blow through!!
Hope this helps mate??
