Wrote a new map for it recently, although it boosts rather hard compared to most maps for the PD130, I soon found out the hard way that the standard intercooler simply wasnt up to the job after a spirited drive one saturday afternoon when I pulled onto a main road and accelerated to 70mph and then it died :( let it cool down and did a diagnostic test and it was clear that the intake temps were far too high so today I had a spare few hours in the workshop and this little lot:

became this:

with bumper on:

Now I just need to make a few trims for the bumper and make a few little alterations and find some GOOD quality plastic mesh and its finished then I will need to find a decent turbo, Single mass flywheel and get on the phone to Helix or Sachs and blag a decent clutch

Looking good. Yeah some decent quality plastic mesh and it'll look cool.

Where about does the MAP sensor plug in? Also what you doing about the crash bar?

Your car is looking better and better everytime....

Good work Dave! How much did has it cost you to do your own Intercooler setup? It looks spot on!

Jeez Dave you dont hang about mate !

Looking really good so far!

And no, you dont hang about. HA!

looking good!!

Thanks for the nice comments lads

Crash bar is still to be worked on, may end up fabricating a tubular stainless item to go over the intercooler rather than refit the standard one.

The kit comes to around £450 inc vat but I am not a registered trader on this site so please dont take this as a 'for sale' post!

The map sensor is fitted and bonded into one of the silicone pipes for now until I machine up a stainless bracket to tig weld to one of the boost pipes.

That's looking very good indeed!

Nice work
