hey mate sorry for the late reply been a busy week at work! thanks for the offer and yeah my concerns are mainly wiring in the intercooler fans as mechanical i have no problems with but electrics just go straight over my head! lol and setting the dawes valve and in dash needle kit i just thought it would be better having someone with some gu patrol experience.

Tbh mate a fan on the ic will be a waste of your time.
The gains will be minimal to none. Better of getting a better scoop to direct the air better.
As for the valves I would advise to put the needle valve under the hood. Easier to adjust there and its a set and forget thing too.
Have you got a boost gauge installed?

yeah ok i wasnt sure whether to try mount it inside the cab or leave under the bonnet. i use the obdII scan guage i have set to read my boost. but i have had other issues this week trying to get sorted with my hid lights seems a small inverter box my system runs has shit itself as im getting power to it from battery and harness but nothing from it to the ballasts etc.

the kit was already installed in my car when i brought it but it was running the standard globes and harness, so i changed the globes yesterday and plugged them in but im getting nothing my mate put a check light on to see if it was getting power and as i say its stopping at the first relay box and not putting any power from there, so i think that box relay box has shit itself.. but i brought a whole new kit just then rather than fucking around there pretty cheap off shitbay lol
