You've probably heard this heaps of times, where's the cheapest place to get a front mounted intercooler?

Im not after anything Universal, basically just a bolt on job.

your cheapest way of doing one is a laguna set-up.......its not gonna be the easiest to fit but it works....

otherwise its forge and it will cost you £600ish without fitting.

i went for forge with mine as i wanted a quality product......plus its backed with a lifetime guarantee.

Sweet Price you got there mate!!

FYI I went for Laguna, and I see same intake temps as the Forge guys, its more hassle, but I only paid £130, ALL IN.

I think a guy has also fitted a Frontera one to his MK3.... plenty of choice mate!

Tis me as me this time lol

Laguna temps are equally as good as Forge, only difference is 6hrs self fitment, single pass and wide, rather than narrow and double pass, and around £800 lol

If I had the money I would of gone forge for less hassle, but I didn't and I wanted an FMIC lol
