I'm installing the i7-2860QM - can I now increase the RAM to 32GB ?
I already have the maximum RAM for the i5 being 16GB and would like to know if I can increase that to 32GB after installing the i7-2860QM.
Thanks.

I don't believe so.
The maximum memory supported per slot is 8 GB.
See chapter 1 of the service manual for the memory upgrade information:

You're very welcome.
Some of the HP mobile workstations with the quad core processors have 4 memory slots and those would support 4 x 8 GB of memory.
Also, you will find that 16 GB DDR3 memory chips are very expensive if you can find them at all.
