Anyway I think I did well - I followed the instructions to the letter, did it all myself without having to burden anyone, learned a bit about denting panels with knees, scraped and scratched **** out of my strutbrace ragging the intercooler past it, took chunks out of all my fingers, froze my knackers off in the cold, buggered up the stereo wiring which I had to sort out, spent forever trying to fathom out how I'd wired up the relay/switch/led for the GPS kit that I put in the car, snapped various plastic clips along the way.............
...................and it only took me all feckin day to do! Bonus!!

LOL at lofty, sure Bob Rawle once said its better nearer the ecu. Thats where mine was, which he originally installed.
Scoobymods, yep, still in that frame of mind. Car is still in bits, as lofty can vouch for

steve by the way if you plan on removing your intercooler its best to first remove your syrut brace
also try to warm up the pipe that goe's on to the turbo when refitting the intercooler,
i had bother with mine then i remeber'd Mr.D useing a heat gun to help it back on to the turbo.

Oi pi55 off the lot of you - I don't remember it being pick on Lofty day today.
I actually got the intercooler off with the strutbrace in place (trapped my fingers a few times tho).
But there was NO way it would go back on with the strutbrace in place (which was when most of the scraping occurred
)
So I took it off then put it back on again. Luckily I remembered to jack the front of the car up and off the ground whilst I did this

Which wires should I have soldered 
I tried soldering once - supposedly a delicate operation but I could've qualified for a job in a shipyard joining huge sheets of ocean-going steel together with my soldering skills.

Hello all
Im sorry to say that my scoob will not be going to well lane
Just as well really as it would be the worst preformer anyway.
Lofty thought the film could of been a lot better but still made me jump once or twice
