Do Germans Have Tiny Hands??

After doing a blow-off valve upgrade to the EVO billet diverters this fine summer evening I have to ask how a person with normal sized hands navigates their way when working on that engine?

I sure like the look of the new ones over the crappy black plastic stock Bosch units. Do the EVO units really provide additional power??

P.S. Great instructions from Evolution Motorsports on the removal and installation process.

Yeah I don't know ... I tried it myself and ending up putting everything back together again. I just couldn't get my hands in there to finish the job.

Not only must their hands be tiny but they nust also have little skinny backs and shoulders. Anyone bulkier than a 14 year old girl has trouble fitting in the seat.

The Dieter Sprocket's of the world must be the target market!

Camneelyphine, I know what you mean, after I finished with mine last weekend, I must have had about 10 small cuts on my hands from doing the damn thing! As you have said, the instructions from EVO were awesome. TC

My mechanic has pretty big hands, and it only took him 45 min to install my Baileys. That included the time it took to remove, rotate and replace the top of one of the DVs so the hose would line up better.
