Hey guys, I just received my HKS twin power, I also got the harness but the instructions are in Japanese. Is there anywhere I can find an english version?

Thanks

Ya, I really didn't want to remove the elbow when I was doing mine because it would mess up the seal between the it and the throttle body. I was sitting there for like 45 min just cursing and getting cramps in my hand. Damn near impossible so I took off the elbow and went on in about 10 min.

Taking off the elbow won't hurt the rubber o-ring at all.......

well on mine at the time my o-ring was really worn and wasn't making a good seal so as a quick fix put some high temp silicone to seal it. So if I was to take it apart I was risking messing that up.

Gotcha. Any way you look at it, the twinpower (with the rotary harness) is a breeze to install

The hard part is un hooking that little clip that you plug into the box. that was all about 10 mins and still got finished in less than 20 mins.

Can anybody post pics of where, exactly, the connector is? I think I have the right one but I don't wanna put in the Twin Power in case I don't... It almost seems too easy with the connector I've found that fits the description, that has me worried =P

Thanks,

Levi
