    I received my Capristo bypass valve with no installation instructions, is there any instructions diagram for installing here on Fchat? It seems simple enough but I don't want to make any mistakes. Thanks in advance.

    I did a write up on it that should be in the archives. If you need help, feel free to PM me.
    I have some pictures provided by Capristo I can send you.

    I just installed the bypass, tested it by having my son look at the valve while I revved the engine and my son can see the valve move up and down, so it works. My question is on the side of the valve by the spring I feel a little exhaust leak, is that normal? Also my valve came with a long tube (6' long) to attach the bypass actuator to the solenoid , do I use the whole length or do you trim the tube to whatever length needed.

    Here are some pictures of my installation and where the leak is from.

    The small leak is totally normal, all valves have it!
