I've got one sitting right here. It's a standard 0.9 bar Subaru job off of my MY98 WRX so should fit your 96 UK. How's a fiver delivered sound? I can take Paypal and have it in the post to you tomorrow. Cheers!

It just pressurises the system more meaning the water can reach higher temp before boiling. Also I've heard it can create leaks if your pipes are marginal already.
