Nope. 100% ok. Idled at 1500rpm and then settled done to 800rpm. i did not observe any smoke. All good. Im reserving judgment until the ecu has relearnt as i reset it.

Sufficice to say that when my vtec kicks in at 5000rpm it like an extra turbine has engaged,

at least that what it sounds like.

yeh connected the lower coolant line on the lower massive valve.
and the other connections to the TB bypass.

RESULT: COLD START and now i don't any problems. Just have some coolant that has dripped down to the lower side. Car sounds slightly deeper and different response.

How did you manage to fit your hand beneath the stock intake manifold to get at the support bracket? I can't fit my hand in at all.

The support bracket lean over from the left hand side of the car and you can slip your hand in from the left hand side of the radiator (passenger side) arch your arm towards the bracket use the 12mm socket wrench to undo the bolt.

i was going to undo the undercover but would have wasted too much time to jack car up so i found that way was more efficient.

ROFLMAO!!!
Bugger that sux, but hey at least you don't need to do much to replace your RBB.

When you removed your RBB, didnt you undo that bolt?
Cause i took the whole RBB + bracket together out.

Only thing i did under the chassis was attach the socket + extension.
Engine bay - slip hands in and attach wrench then undo.
