very easy to fit and theres no damager atall unless you takeit off, youmay want a new vacuum pipe!!! ;-) they do help with fuel consumption yes but i can notice the difference when it is on/off with changing gear, seems smoother when its on????? ;-)

Be very careful with these.. Mine came loose whilst driving, and apart from the horrid noise and bad engine running, it took all the power from the brakes whilst bombing down a country lane. Fortunately I noticed before really needing the brakes, so could coast it to work and sort it out.
Didn't make any noticable difference on economy either.. Once I get round to finding a new bit of brake hose, I'm getting rid of mine.
