Why? It's only a few bolts, and move the pipes about a bit.
If a muppet can put a inlet manifold together in a factory, I'm sure anyone can

Flame on here sells them and they come with instructions on how to fit them.
All you need to buy is a gasket I think as it comes with everything else £138 and well worth it.

prity much the case of pulling old inlet mani off, un bolting a few brackets, a little bit of drilling the tb for the way the bolts have to run, coolant line has to be connected up, air duct has to be cut out and a bit of wire spliting and blanking off where the tb used to be..
the vx one you need to blankoff the egr but flames you use a copper pipe to connect the egr into the manifold..
dont take long once you done one tbh
