Default V & H Fuel Pak Question????

My dealer wants to charge me an hour for install on this. I'm assuming I could install this on my own. Am I correct on this? Isn't it just a plug in and punch the codes from the website type deal?

Thanks guys! That's what I thought. Is there any drilling involved for the spider bracket? What type/strength loctite? Anyone want to give me a play by play on the install?

NO loctite needed - Start by taking the screws out of the FuelPak (crappy litttle screws so be careful) - you'll un-plug the lead to your ECM and attached it to the FuelPak - Attach FuelPak with tie strap... And start your set-up... Once set-up uploaded re-attach screws in FuelPak and ride into the Sun light...

no drilling required for the install. actually the best instructions come with the fuel pak they are better than any moco instructions you get with their do dads . be sure to use a quality screw driver as the screws are small and are prone to rounding out, i found out the hard way. but all in all its easy to do..
