lloks like an early classic one, it does fit but needs the wiring modded to fit, I fitted a genuine prodrive one on mine as it is compatible with the plug on the newage loom

You do know that the 3-port is fitted as part of an upgrade package as the ECU needs remapping at the time of fitting

Nope, not hard to fit........... but while the mapper is running over your car for faults, fitting det cans, screwing on a widebande sensor, making sure the boost guage is OK (fitting one of his own to your cockpit), and making sure it's going to be a mapping session rather than killing your car....

Plumbing in the 3-port is one of his duties

£20 seems too cheap to me ... Harvey is selling really good ones on here (MAC) for just £65.

that one on ebay will do the job fine, for plug and play ones they are more expensive, perrin,prodrive etc, nothing wrong with cutting wires if its done neatly and soldered heat shrunk etc.
