Forge Intercooler v's Other

[stani540]

I've had a search round and cant really find what i want to know.


I just want to know what difference it would make in getting a forge or a another eg THS type 1

I want to know if its worth the extra money and whether you'd get significant gains in comparison??

you dint search very hard http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/search.php?searchid=3746390

 

[mr_D]

you didn't start one of these threads! All that info will be found if u search.

My advice is go with what you can afford. They are all alot better than standard.

 

[p34ch3y]

forge if you can afford it,no messing about with the cutting of the bumper and this sort of thing

the universal one on the bay i dont think you have to cut bumpers for and i believe its really good for the money too.

Im going to put a group by feeler out for these later, just waiting on a reply, so keep your eyes peeled on the relevent section if your interested mate.

Mr D i think is the ad car for them (think im right with that)

Im looking at the ths type one bit better quality than the ebay ones 110 each not bad !!!

 

[mr_D]

my car is the car. Your right. They are fantastic for the money and it depends how you mount it as to if you have to cut the bumper. But its not as if you can butcher it.

no not the 110 quid ones. There £200 from universal-intercoolers.co.uk.

Haven't heard anything bad about them at all and to be honest i dont think i could justify the extra £450 odd more for what extra gain you might have from others. Thats my opinion and i appreciate i may get slated for it but i know a couple of quite heavily modded cars using these too with no probs so as Mr D said they must be very good for the £

Mr D how much did you have to chop of the bumper with your cooler if its 200 for the whole kit i might get in on this group buy!!!

 

[mr_D]

its 200 normally so gb will be cheaper. and i had to cut off about 1-2cm from the centre section. at the back of it so no one really sees it

Ive got the One of ebay and it works a treat

I wanted mine on show to i cut the bumper and scribed the pipes around it like so

[stani540]

I'm currently running a Laguna FMIC on a K03s and am very happy with the performance and it didnt cost too much either

[stani540]

i just dont really like the way the laguna one looks, and i know its not about aesthetics but just my view

 

[Rocky Rocastle]

heres another pic of the ebay one with uncut bumper, very nice car all round, quite heavily modded too.

 

[MIkey kc]

I like the sound of this fmic, may be tempted to get one as they are so cheap.

Just noticed your mods list mikey, pretty impressive, has it been on the rolling road?
