    I've got pictures supplied by H R Owen Lambo/Bugatti who fitted them for me.
    I am technically stupid and don't know how to reduce the size of picture to publish on R8 Talk.
    If someone could talk me through it, I can publish, or, if you pm your email I can send directly.

    Not to alarm you, but I would be concerned if a shop couldn't figure out something as simple as an exhaust install.
    The hardest/most time consuming part of the install would be the removal of everything before the actual install itself...

    The vacuum source should be easy for them to source. The rest of it is just routing the hoses from the controller to the exhaust flaps.

    ok the unit that were facing problems with is the black vacuum accumulator with the three spheres, Ive attached a pic of it on the bottom, where do both ends attach to?? if anyone has pics of the the attachments or a step by step it would be much appreciated.........the mechanic Im working with has done kreisseg units before, but never a capristo and he wants to make sure everything is done right so as to not damage anything, which I respect and appreciate.
