It's too busy worried about how their cars/TTs etc look, rather than go.

Remove all the factory intake, IC and its piping.Follow the instructions from Plazmaman for fitting the intercooler, any cutting needed just do it a small part at a time, take your time and dont rush it.Tidy up any cuts/drill holes and paint them so they don't rust later on.Once the cooler is mounted start on the piping, usually start at the turbo, fit the silicon joiners and pipes all together, just leave the clamps loose so you can do a final adjust and line up, then tighten... good idea to wet the pipes where they go into the silicon joiners so you can move them around easilly. Avoid getting any grease in the joiners as pipes can work loose over time.All in all you should be fine, if you get stuck give the boys at Plazmaman a call.

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle!

As for the install, try to hav someone to help you and remember to measure twice, cut once.
