In addition to the hiclones, i will be fitting my Allisport intercooler, and tweaking the pump, I will also be hanging on for dear life on the A43!!!  :lol:

hiclones will suffocate the airflow at high rpm, apparently. numerous people seem to have experienced that

Some discussion about hyclone again recently, I'd love to know if anybody has evidence they inprove performance.

If someone wants to buy me some for the LSE I'd gladly report my findings :wink:

Meantime I'd be interested to know if you think they make a difference for the better Mud Rat, as you have them already.

Thanks to Bobtail, i have now got the new intercooler installed and the hiclones and the pump tweak and they all work very very well!

Just driven to work, loads better, tried without the Hiclones, def better in than out, at least another 200 BDP (brake DONKEY power!) I can now overtake Asthmatic Ants with heavy shopping going up hill, whereas b4 it was open up the doors trying to catch some wind!. Seriously i have fitted a safety devices roof rack, so the benefit from the Hiclones have been negated by the resistance from the rack, but they were cheap and easy to fit!
