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.

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

PICKLE 02 January 2004 05:48 PM

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

David MY99 02 January 2004 05:58 PM

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

anyone want to buy an alloy batt cover:(

toxwaz 03 January 2004 03:19 AM

thanx 4 the update harvey!think i`ll stick with polished also. mark.

TopBanana 03 January 2004 10:27 AM

I don't mind moving the battery, have been intending to move it to the boot for some time now.

Johnny50 03 January 2004 10:55 PM

My car is a 98 wagon anyway, so i'm presuming my APS recirc is gonna be fine then ?? :)

Cheers for the pics David. :)

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.

Thanks for satisfying my curiousity, Harvey. :)

PICKLE 04 January 2004 10:54 AM

Pardon me for being a bit thick (and a bit cheeky), but what is the total price you lot have paid as part of this group buy?? I'm too stupid to add it all up and work it out :) I am sooo gutted I missed out on this!

Oh well, still a good price according to my mail from Roger@Powerdigger for one!! :)

Cheers,

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.

:D :D :D :D

PICKLE 04 January 2004 05:21 PM

Rayman 2; any pics on Air filter side especially??

The website only shows battery side! (which looks V tight!)

Mika 04 January 2004 06:24 PM

Can't wait e-mail from Dawn =)

TopBanana 04 January 2004 06:48 PM

I might go for unpolished if it's so much cheaper. Never been one for flash looks anyway - which is lucky ;)

Delboy2 04 January 2004 07:47 PM

If it is $100 cheaper for the un-polished version I may also take this option. ;)


Cheers

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.

Johnny50 06 January 2004 09:00 AM

Picked up my mail this morning. Thanks Harvey.

Am just gonna organise the funds to be transferred, and that should be it ! :)

Goldeneye 06 January 2004 01:27 PM

Harvey

Both e-mails received, thanks.

Contacted Mr Chan and will be sending my payment tonight. Now to sit back and wait for my nice new intercooler. :D

harvey 06 January 2004 01:35 PM

Thanks for that Gary. I know you understand my concerns and all is well now. Good luck.

Mark A 06 January 2004 07:43 PM

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.
