I actually need one ASAP as I have already have one of these intercoolers but need to change it to be safe as having turbos rebuilt, new manifolds etc, and not sure if there are fragments of impeller in mine!! How would this work if I put my name down? I'd like to help you guys at the same time...But will buy at full price tomorrow if need be.

I've just had to buy a water expansion tank at full price, and have been told that this won't contribute towards the tally for the group-buy. The only way it will count is if you wait for the process to complete and then include within the total order. And then you will wait further for your unit to be manufactured.
The reason I was told is that despite having 1 or 2 units in stock, the run of a group-buy will be independently and specifically manufactured to fulfill the order, so as not to impact on ProAlloy's normal stock levels.
And their discounting system is very strict so as to be fair to dealers who already may bulk purchase, such as our friends at Jetstream.

Power steering reservoir?

I know they don't make one but given the number of posts and interest in a 'proper one' do you think if we get to say 50 they would?

I've got everything else now, but this would finish my engine bay
+1 but maybe a better design.

Cheers Jarcy for the info, I have just bitten the bullet and ordered one, and Chris who I spoke to was very helpful. Good luck getting the numbers up all!

I've been in contact with Chris at pro alloy today, once group buy is finished in a couple of days time we all need to contact him or Alex to confirm exactly what you'd like to proceed to order, when everybody has confirmed then the relevant discount will be implemented to the price, once payment received approx 3-4 weeks for turnaround of order. Has anybody got a spare power steering reservoir they're prepared to send to pro alloy in a view for them to replicate in alluminium? I've offered to go over in my car but they'd like it for half a day and I've got quite a few work commitments at the moment to be their that long! Anyone else want anything? John

Anyone for the hard pipe kit to get to 5? I wouldn't have thought they'll be another group pro alloy buy so I'd make the most of it! Ends on Friday! Hell sounds like a DFS advert! ;-)

OK fellas time to proceed, our point of contact is Alex who is the manufacturing director of pro alloy, I emailed him earlier today about the procedure to continue and it is:-

Probably the best thing to do would be if you can advise everyone to email me directly confirming the parts they would like to order along with their full invoicing and delivery address details. Once we have received confirmation for all the relevant parties I can then confirm with you final numbers and prices, and we will then send out confirmation emails individually to each person along with a pro-forma invoice and all the payment instructions. This should make it fairly straight forward for everyone to pay using their preferred method of payment. So by card over the phone or Paypal or bank transfer etc.

So there we have it Alex's reply, so please can everyone please respond to alex@proalloy.co.uk with your exact requirements and he'll get back to you, could everyone do it over the weekend please then we should be ready to crack on, on Monday, if anyone else wants to order anything just contact Alex via email, have a good weekend guys, I'm off to Silverstone classics Saturday/Sunday, cheers John.
