If it wad a inch short or inch narrower or inch thinner it would have fitted nicely.

But I think ita just that bit big. As the piping will need the bumper cutting. And I dont fancy that.

Ill need to cut the crashbar to. But I can soon replate that and weld strength back into it

  • Realise this. The more pipework. The more air needed to fill and more lag. Just trying to work out if I can fit this cooler into the space and how to best run pipes before I go spending any money

  • My old man fabed a bracket up for me, you can see the two large torx screws it uses and it also fixes to the bumper support aswell.

  • You probably wouldn't notice the lag as said. The other way to do it is to run a single pass cooler and passat inlet manifold to reduce the pipework.

Im in a half mind to buy the 90 degree elbow reducer toput on the ns and see if it will lign up wirh the pass through or not. Or just put it for sale and look for a slightly smaller one lol

Doesn't look like much work - run it on the passenger side the same way Joe has done his ;)

im not quitting. Just having a step away and think ;)

It will fit m8.. i had to modify the back of my bumper + lost the drivers fog light but you cant see any of the modified bits once its on + i just mounted my short private plate over the drivers fog surround lol so no1 can even tell lol :)

On seat sport style ones theres still cutting of the bumper involved and other stuff on some kits so its not out of the ordinary to start chopping stuff up.

Matt where did you get your intercooler from?

Matt where did you get your intercooler from?

ebay m8. Its a Toyosport cooler i cant remember the size but it was the biggest one with 57mm outlets..

My figuring behind using an evo intercooler. Besides it being a bargain. A standart evo has 270ish (?? ) bhp so ive figured this will do for me as a cheap alternative

260bhp baby evo

I kept my A/C and modified the back of my bumper but you would have more room without the A/C

Think im gonna adapt front crash bar.

Alter inside of bumper (cut them blocks behind number plate back)

Space out my modified crash bar.

then get a sledgehammer amd gently mount cooler.

I AM NOT getting rid of my AC! Owned a black car without ac or sun roof before . Not fun in summer !

You can move your rad and ac rad back abit so I have been told.
