Also from what I can tell the PW kit and the Plazmaman kit are roughly the same price part for part. Don't forget that the Plazmaman kit doesn't come with the hot side piping which IMO make the rest of the kit rather pointless and the PW Kit has the TB relocation which ads $$, so if you lose that there roughly the same price.

And you could get there without the cooler but it would be better if you could get one, maybe even a cheaper HDI or soemthing?

I really would like to elimanite the factory crossover and have an under battery intake on the car, but I cant justify spending 2k on a kit if its only going to be used to 50% of its potetial

seems cheap enough, anyone fitted one of these kits? Got a pic of them installed?

Will be keeping my eye on the classifieds just incase someone is selling a kit too :)

yeah was tossing up between the process west and rapids but I like the look of the process west one better, just the look of the throtle body relocation, looks alot neater and less pipework, might have to start some saving and wait a month or two, see what they say at pitlane tomorrow

ok well my plans are starting to change once again, having a fair bita hassel just to get a airbox fitted, so now im deciding to buy a new cooler, just so I can get the airbox to work and look good. Prblems I've had, mostly the battery is the biggest prob because I dont want to relocate it to the boot, I want it on the other side of the engine bay. I was going to get a rapids V.1 kit but because of the way the cold side runs the battery wont fit... Been thinking of a hdi cooler but dont like the idea of cutting the front bar and just dont like the look of their piping for some reason. And it seems my last option is process west, like their piping and the cooler fits with no cutting but I dont like the price tag, lol... so it seems that fitting an airbox is going to work out to be about 2000, lol. something I didnt want to spend in the first place, but it seems as its going to be the best way. Rapid do make a pipe that will allow me to use the airbox with the stock cooler but at 300 and having to cut the airbox to accomodat the pipe im not to keen on as I wanted to upgrade the cooler later so I dont want a hole in the airbox. hmmm reading over this seems im a bit picky on stuff, lol.

This damn airbox better be worth it, lol.

still wondering if I should just go with the hdi, it does look good through the front, but the piping and cutting just puts me off, arhhhh

few more weeks and ill hopefully have it sorted, lol

rant over/

You'll need a clutch dude... $2k Mal Woods option 3... Anything over 260-70rwkw and stock clutch will die!

henz has just over 300kw atw with stock clutch, think it might be on it last legs now, but lasted him around 8 months or so I think.

all depends on the way you drive
