Order placed and will update this thread in a few days.

 

Funds are confirmed and we got a slightly better exchange rate than budgeted.

 

Any idea on delivery dates?

How much of a saving are we looking at?

 

When do you want cheques sent for the remainder?

 

I really should get around to getting one of these, but would like some one to fit it for me!

Good kit, great price, and I can sell my STi V TMIC modded for early slanty cars for half the cost!!!!

 

Neil...DIY...not that difficult.. (i hope)

See the Projects thread on the Hybrid..

 

It is not a difficult DIY job. Just allow yourself plenty time, think ahead and have everything to hand you can possibly think of and the job should not present any real problem. The biggest consideration is what to do with the induction especially if you are still on the OE panel filter. A VTA dump valve makes it very easy but for me a recirc is preferable and on some cars the OE DV can be reused or a flange and spiggot is needed to convert the DVs which fit to the top mount by a flange.
If anybody wants to come to Darlington for a fitting it can be arranged.

 

The delivery is now in the UK so I expect it here Wednesday latest. I will confirm everything is complete because there have been problems with odd items missing in the past. All being well I will e-mail individuals Wednesday evening for final payment with next day delivery available from receipt of cleared funds.

 

Thats great news...

I was thinking of getting a BAILEY DUMP VALVE DV26...will this work ok?

I have read somewhere the DV's cause an issue....then again i may be mistaken..

Sam

 

Any news Harvey?

 

I have collected the intercooler kits, which are in component parts in a large packing case to reduce freight charges. Tomorrow I will check everything is there because so far I cannot see any screws or brackets.
I will post on here early tomorrow evening and providing everything is accounted for I will notify everybody individually for the balance payments.

 

OK Guys : You should all have e-mails bringing you up to speed.
There are two flat steel brackets in each kit and these have been missed out. No big deal as it is simply a flat piece of steel with a hole at either end. I have two sets of brackets here and two kits are boxed and ready to go.
We made savings on freight charges and the all in delivered price, customs paid etc. is £558.
Anyone not receiving a private e-mail with final details please e-mail me immediately.
Regards,
Harvey.

 

Sami : You can reuse your OE dump valve if it fits into the pipe work but if it is one of these that sits on the top mount intercooler with a flange you will need a flange adaptor.
If you are going for an aftermarket dump valve the easiest to fit are the vent to atmosphere because you do not have to plumb the recirculating air back into the inlet tract somewhere after the MAF. However my advice would be to go with a recirc if you can stand the hassle of plumbing it in.
There should be absolutely no problem with a BOV providing it is matched to the boost level you are running. For instance Forge BOVs with which I am familiar can come with one of four different springs so you need to state the boost level you are running if you are buying a new BOV. If you get a second hand one it might be a bit hit and miss.

 

If anybody wants an oil catch can to go with the FMIC, let me know. I have four here at £45 each. Picture of the tank and kit is here. www.geocities.com/harveysmith3000.

 

the catch can looks interesting harvey, whats the blue thing on the left, cant quite make it out (monitor is slowly dying)

 

Got one thanks....

Harvey..have my funds cleared?

 

Sami: Not only have I got your funds, your kit is shipped. Did you not got my last mail?
Steven : I guess it is intended to use as a blank to block off holes left in the inlet tract.

 

ahh right

 

Want one Steven? I only have the four here?

 

What is the benefit of them?
Shall i just add it to the cost when i pay the money for the FMIC. Will be doing so tomorow morning.

 

If you want one just add £45 to the payment.
The purpose of a catch tank is to take the vent pipes, one from each cam cover and one from the crankcase to the catch tank, whereas at present they vent back in to the inlet tract.
The idea is that if you have a big slug of oil contaminated air coming from the inards of your engine going back through your combustion chambers, while you are on WOT, then momentarily the combustability of the charge is adversely affected and at worst could lead to det. Now you could vent these three pipes to atmosphere but if you are involved in motorsport and have an engine mishap you will drop a lot of oil on the track. This is considered to be a bad thing.
The catch tanks are chrome plated and look very pretty.
Send me your phone number if you want to talk it through further or if you actually decide to go ahead with a catch tank and need some guidance as to what is required.

 

No thanks Harvey, got one already. Just curious, as i had not seen one that looked like that before. Any specific brand?

 

Got my package today, will open tonight when i get home...Impressed with the packaging...

Nice one Harvey...will be in touch..also regarding the headers...

 

Whats this about headers?

 

Getting them ported...

 

Not another group buy on them then. Pity i'm in need of headers.

 

FMIC arrived today as promised many thanks harvey, you were right about the quality it looks very well made.




Now all i need to do is get it all fitted.




Thanks again

Andy

(mental note: i must not put car parts on the dining room table)

 

RoRu, that looks just like my dining room with all the bits lying around, turbo arrived today and got the injectors and short motor. Sorry Harvey didn't sort it today, how do you do it on the internet?
