I won't take any money off you fella for it.
Would be good to dyno before and after anyways to see what's what.
Hopefully doing FMIC early next year as long as a 406 manifold fits straight on.
PS: to anyone in the know, if it comes to it, what's the procedure for removing PAS?

Yeah it's still alive
Still struggling with how I'm going to get a manifold to fit without removing PAS or converitng to electric PAS.
Anyone know what has to be done to remove PAS, just a case of removing the PAS pump?

Non PAS rack would be needed from a lesser 205 mate, other then that just remove all power assisted bits

Removing PAS is the last option tbh. When it's warmer need to have a real good study of what's what and where to route pipes haha!

Mate the electric PAS pump off the 106 is an easy fit on the 306 as the pipe fittings are the same. give me a shout if you want a full explination as its a bit long to type.

Indeed white. Everyone else seems to disagree tho.
There's only one answer to that question though, and I think you'll find it's what I answered
