I just sold my laguna setup to another member a few days ago... shame... its a good setup, thats probably the best budget option along with the ebay ones, universal and ths stage 1 'cooler. Thing you can get those for under 200notes all in with pipes.

off a renault laguna mate.. i just bought the set up. You can the intercooler off ebay cheap. There is a fitting guide on the main website. Also if you do a search should bring up what pipes you need. Might be on fitting guide actually if you check it.

yeh the guide tells you all the pipe work you need. You can get the laguna intercooler for like 100quid and all the pipes and bits for about 150. Been tried and tested with good results!

Search button is your friend!

yea but im talking about the intercooler being to thick to fit behind the bumper with or with out the grill,yea lose the grill all the way im with you on that one.....most people on this kind of kit say that a small amount realy needs to be trimed off the back of the bumper
