After years of thinking about it I finally did it. Installed an upgraded I/C from HPD.Already had the Plazmaman Hot pipe so I left it there.
Install was a bit tricky as I ordered the "Thailand" kit based on the photos on the website even though mine is a 2007 Spanish. This was purely based on the 126kw motor. If I followed the instructions the I/C would have fouled on the lower radiator support. A little bit of thinking and its all in now with only a couple of "What the @#%@ have I done?" moments.
Performance wise it's hard to say if it's much different. It was more installed as a replacement for an old and fouled one and as insurance against future failure. Also because it offers up a couple more mods.
Cheers to the guys at HPD too. After unpacking I found a hose missing and
sent them an email. Hose must have been on the next flight it arrived so quick.
