try them Martin, should have everything you need...and more!
I would want more heavy duty, for 4 spots i always run 24 amp...5 amp would probably catch fire!

Apparantly it's addictive once you get in, but I can say no (well.... sometimes)


There is another similar company, but for the life of me I can't remember who they are

yes you can,im sure reaper has one on his disco,was sent some pics etc og how to do it,you need a dumpvalve,a micro switch,a valve & a few other bits,

IIRC you can buy a kit from one of the turbo/intercooler companies that was designed for the pug diesles thta can be modded to fit a landy engine
