Harvey,
What were the arrangements regarding polished/unpolished. I'm thinking of swopping to unpolished and spraying it matt black, in the hope it will have better heat absorption properties.

Without aircon
With Aircon
As you can see , you can use any kind of airfilter
For the powerdigger you'll need an dumpvalve for the classic MY97/98.
The pictures above are from an HKS FMIC but the piping is exactly the same as the powerdigger

David thanks for the pics. Might be able to keep my Induction kit, but will have to change D/V and Battery I reckon if I get the Hybrid. Adds another £150 or so for both but still a cheap FMIC conversion IMHO 
Cheers all

battery is no problem, just make sure the plus is taped or so.
I've seen several of these powerdigger kits and all with the standard battery and with an apex/HKS/K&N kit.
Dumpvalve needs to be changed to an MY97/98 version or an home made adjustment. Not a big deal anyway

Gentlemen : I have e-mailed to Hong Kong the encoded bank transfer documents which will enable Mr Chan`s bank to immediately identify and apply for the funds. Mr Chan has confirmed receipt of these documents and I have e-mailed him this morning covering all relevant points and hope to hear from him Monday that everything is now sorted.
Providing that is the case, my girlfriend Dawn, will e-mail everybody Monday evening with all the necessary information to complete the order of individual intercoolers. (she is ten times faster than my one finger typing).
Goldeneye : Lang may yer lum reek, translated literally is Long may your chimney smoke, in other words wishing someone long life with the ability to afford and put on coal on the fire. I suppose it is an old Scottish way of saying Health and Happiness etc.
Mark A : I hope Mr Chan has not make a mistake because a reduction of $100 US for non polished seems a lot to me but at the time of ordering you will simply request your intercooler without polishing and subject to Mr Chan confirming your payment will be $436 US and not $536.
Anybody with any queries let me have them now either on here or harveysmith1@btopenworld.com.
Happy New Year everybody.

The piping is not the same as the HKS FMIC at all. It differs alot near the turbo outlet. The piping does not go over the induction as the HKS. It goes under it, you will also require a silicon reducer hose from the turbo outlet piping. I am not too sure about the amount of clearance on later cars for the induction.
Overall the piping is alot tighter than the HKS, in comparsion the piping is alot more shorter for improved airflow.

Gentlemen: Everybody should now have two e-mails with all the information required. There was difficulty with a couple of addresses so if you have not received two e-mails then send me an e-mail so I can respond.
Hopefully all the hassles are sorted and it goes smoothly from here on in.

PayPaled Mr Chan £246 which is daylight robbery for the Group Buyers.
Harvey thanks for the advice re sprinting and I'm sure I will be seeking your advice come closer to April.
