they worked very well, the kit is still being sold, i saw it in a mag last 
month i think. it is for the type I, but since you remove the y pipe under 
the seat and alum. tape in the cylinder fan, i'm sure it can be used in a 
type III. the kit is up to $119, but i just thought it was steep for what 
you get. maybe not since ther seems to be no better (cheap) solution. i'll 
see if i can find the ad tonight. i think is was by bob's bug's or something 
cheesy like that.

i was hoping to pay around the 30 range for a booster system, i am not 
opposed to doing it myself, as opposed to a kit w/ instructions.
