    Why not using the later Corrado PAS bottle that slots next to the washer bottle?

    Because you need to modify the PAS pipes, the later bottle is as a reservoir/header tank only, the early 16v style one is a pass through tank.

    Its also the reason the G60s and later cars have the extra cooling pipe for PAS coming through the radiator support panel.

    Hi all, yeah been a bit slow with the updates...

    Got all of the little gremlins sorted I think, Rev counter, Fog lights, Fuel pump, Power steering etc etc etc, now just have one Carb diaphram weaping fuel out so that needs stripping and sorting...

    I have a great fondness for Corrado's ever since being involved with my mates G60 a few years back. Your hard work has paid off as usual Phil, it looks amazing.
    Well done.

    No you don't, you put the t-piece where the original bottle was and bolt the other one of the wing. Problem free for the last 2 years on mine and the oracle supports my theory (well actually I pinched his.)

    Yes the car did get all the snagging completed but is not on the road yet, the house project and a bit of an illness have kept me out of the unit since early December... It'll be running soon with an update coming :)
