what do you need to know? you bolt it to the crank, I'd use some thread locking stuff.





beware, I've got yellow skin

for megajolt it has to be a 36-1 wheel, which is annoying. i'm still trying to do the one on my xev, i'm finding quite a pain personally, i can't get it to spin centrally.

have a look at my thread from last nite

in theory the fitting should really be the same sort of process as any engine, most people seem to manage alright, all i'm saying is that I'M having problems.

have a look on the autosportlabs website (who design the megajolt) for fitting ideas. it shouldn't really be too difficult, i think it comes down to the amount of space i have in my car, and my level of attention to detail, which is sometimes low for this sort of thing lol

its worth it when it works though!

looks like omega 24 v6 has fitted one to a xe
