cheers mate! got it..

 

Hi chaps, posted this in drivetrain just now for you...

"For some time now my old username JACKO was murdered. However I have been resurrected as DJNormski!

First of all, it is doable! Although it isn't easy and you are reliant upon the fabrication firm you use to how well it goes.
As has already has been covered, the idle speed control gets in the way so P1/STi5/6 BOV no good!
I used Haywood and Scott to make me up a BOV adapter but the problems begin with the actual intercooler. The outlet to the P1 BOV is smack bang inline with the idle speed control (and no, you cannot move that ), so an overlapping hole has to be cut into the intercooler and its gasket (a bit like a 8 shape) taking care not to infringe upon the 2 bolt holes and sealing surface.

Mine still requires a bit of finessing as it is a bit tight to get over the intercooler support bracket. I will go and see my contact within H & S tomorrow to discuss my tweaking and mention that we may need to make another if you are interested???

Did I also read correct that someone claims that the STi intercooler is not as good as some aftermarket ones???? Poor research if you ask me, as I have already gone through that loop and any of the STi items are among the best in the business excluding FMIC of course "

Hope this helps.

Jacko.

 

Deer hunter, I have relatives in Whitegate (Chester!) and one of them has just imported a Holden Commodore HSV - I am getting it SVA'd at the place in Liverpool in 4 weeks - fancy meeting up for a bull****? Should have the car with me(MY97+LINK).

I used a 22b intercooler
