Intercooler arch mod with pictures...

Featured Replies

honda accord diesels have quite a large arch vent on nearside noticed one today, another option when rummaging down at the breakers

Audi for £18 but now you have to pay £20+ second hand and you know me Bowders, I love a Pikey mod :D

 

I must remember that there is a place for pikey mods buddy . :p

 

My OCD is making me quiver with that statement :notme:  

In all fairness, I did spray it black :D

I did mine exactly as Bowders, road wheel off to drill and cut profile hole in my inner wheel arch, I used a TT inner arch vent +Tigerseal made sure the vent would sit in the cutout .

 

I put the road wheel back on and wedged bits of wood between the tyre and the vent panel overnight.

Pictures or it didn't happen :D

Just drill some holes.  Had mine done for 6 years and still fine.  Intercooler fins arent clogged.

Not much point in me posting mine up that I did the other day, looks exactly like that, except I took mine off to clamp it, got a few ratchet clamps cheap from my local hardware store because they were sun faded from window display...result, used a couple of short bits of timber to reach across and spread the load to the awkward bits.

has anyone got a pic of the complete inner arch?  Just wondering if an audi S3 inner arch would just fit straight on!

It was a few years ago, but if I remember correctly, no, the total liner shape is too different.

It would have been a nice simple mod to do ie: "Taka off / Putta on".
