Been fitting my huge intercooler today..

Still got a bit to do..

Had to change the pipework 3 times as I wasn't happy..

But I'm happy now I've re routed the hot side...so will see lower intake temps and a good jump in power..now I've ripped the forge twin pass off....

(Off to eBay that will go)

Also changing the air filter pipework too..and catch mounting.

Will post pictures up tomorrow.

Got blooming back ache now!

Anybody know what make of intake this is please?

(Going on eBay too)

Looks like an ABD, think Bowders has one?? could be wrong though.

Thanks guys..

Cut down and pipe

Do you not need to fit a proper maf as maf in tube is a pita to map or you going maf less tune ?

Could be the newer type ABD but they are typically 3" and need a reducer.

Mine is the older type without the extra connection for SAI pipe.

What's your cooler mate?

Haven't done the wide mouth on the bumper...as I want it stealth.

My honest opinion you should have routed it differently

The way you have done it will restrict airflow to your air filter

Looks ace mind

Better than the way it was being routed..by the down pipe.

It has a 3" cold feed to the filter..all be it hitting the end!

Bays not finished..

Filters being replaced and intake pipe..

I've left it like that as I need it running again.

Still got a bit to do.

Doing good dude will make a huge difference

The way I would have suggested is straight down at front and the. Around :-)
