Intercooler query

Featured Replies

Im fitting an FMIC to my vRS, and just wondered a few things:

A: what thickness and diameter ally/steel tube do i need for the hard tube?

B: I want the inlet of the manifold on the bottom left (as you face car), and exit also on the left but above so will need a universal FMIC. But what height/width/thickness can i get away with.

I dont really want to attack my crash bar yet, but may do in the future. And will eventually be joining the 'Fabia big mouth club'.

Dont bother mate, theres not enough space behind there for a universal intercooler. Plus where are you going to mount the MAP sensor once you have removed the standard intercooler and hence its mount :confused:

Too much effort involved, believe me i have tryed and failed, its so much easier to buy a complete kit :thumbup:
