My question about getting one else where, is your shipping going to be too expensive? I'm sure places in the US, like www.sportcompactonly.com or rx7store.net might carry something like that, but with shipping to UK, I don't know if it would be worth it?

Sy,,,, u in for a bit of shock owning an RX7 in the UK,,,ive had mine 18 months,,,,and tunning parts over here are stupidly priced.,, some times its cheaper to get from america providing you can dodge the import duty,,,(which can save you money,,,or make the item cost even more than it does in the UK)

I havnt seen anyone use one here, but PWR has some good ones. I saw an article in J tuner where they tested about 10 rx7s in the UK, probably 4 or 5 of them used the PWR cooler. They make a few different sizes based on your application.
