It's then a fairly easy process to wire open the valves:
1. Maually open the valve with your finger and insert the piece of wood up the outboard tailpipe to hold the valve open.
2. Cut a length of wire about 6 or 7 inches long.
3. Fasten one end of the wire around the joint in the valve control arm.
4. Pass the other end through the hole in the bracket that mounts the valve actuator to the exhaust system and fasten it tightly.
5. Remove the piece of wood from the exhaust pipe and ensure the valve remains open.
Awesome AGS, thanks!
