Hi anyone tell me if the 170bhp Fr has a frontmounted intercooler?

Yes...

I believe it is front mounted, behind the radiator.

 

[Cupramax]

erm, I think you'll find in front of the radiator would be a better idea...

 

[UncleFester]

if it's anything like the Mk1 Leon, it will be sandwiched in a bank of 3

aircon, FMIC, radiator

If you look on the Forge Website you can see it (behind the additional one they are selling).

The mk1 Leon had side mounts... either one or two dependant on Cupra or R

The Mk1 Cupra/FR TDI has a front mount

The Mk1 Cupra/FR TDI has a front mount

I never knew that.

I never knew that.

Neither did I until I spent 20 minutes looking for a side mounted one

It's not a shiney bling one like the Forge intercoolers so its not that easy to spot.

It was Lloyd at Allards who told me it had one after i rang up enquiring about getting one for it .... felt like such a plank. As you say, it's NOT easy to spot as it's really packed in there. I would imagine the new Leon is just the same and just as hard to spot.
