Default killer chiller in the UK

Hi
I'm not looking to install one right away, but I do have upgrades to both pulleys waiting to go on.
CAn anyone tell me a Killer Chiller installer in the UK, or a supplier? It sounds like with the AC being involved it's not a DIY-able option - please correct me if I'm wrong!
Any info on install costs would be great. The US prices look pretty good, no doubt those numbers will be the cost in £ over here.. I prefer to save where I can, if I can do it myself all the better!

Please forgive my ignorance; but I have not heard of a chiller assembly being incorporated into a car. I had been playing with the idea of re-directing cold supply air from an A/C duct into the air intake, since Jaguar recommends never shutting the A/C off; is this along the lines of this type of 'chiller' installation? Or is it for the Superchargers cooling system only? Which at this point, I know next to nothing about how it is setup, or functions.

Kincaid Performance, Inc.

it's a system that uses the a/c to cool the intercooler fluid, can bring it down below ambient. as far as I can tell it's a fairly basic system compared to some others out there but it does work.

Wow! I have to get me one of those; if not for the sheer pleasure of telling my former co-workers that I can establish a water temperature set-point on my Inter-cooler to below ambient temperatures. I live in the Pacific North-West, and in the summers we see 100*F quite frequently where I live.
