When you say set up what do u mean? thought it was just a case of piping it up and making sure there are no leaks? Does it require a map/tweak?

Ah, give them a ring and discuss it, will prob add soem time to the job so may need the car for longer, they will be able to advise if its worth it or not.

The tmic on the early classics is pretty crap though, fmic would be the easiest route rather than a later top mount. I would ditch the baileys dv and get a re-circ valve and this will save you changing it later

What Banny say's is true. I'd personally look for a STi 8 onwards topmount. Works well and you don't have the associated lag that a FMIC will give you.
