Show off your intercooler thread

[RabReith89]

Hi guys just fitted my custom intercooler and i have went down the route of fully exposen my one just waiting till jan to get the bumper sprayed.

I understand that some guys and girls like keeping them hidden or even spaying them black so hears your chance to show it off

Fmic is on my list of mods. Yours is looking good mate! did you get that for Xmas

 

[RabReith89]

If you mean mine mate?? Thanks, Yea treated my self when i came back from offshore

Like chris i relocated my charge pipe down past the washer bottle ect looks better.

If your getting a uni intercooler mate i would advise you to upgrade the j-clips to t-bolt clamps.

And thanks for that info,also it will be a uni one. Not to everyones taste,but as you know
But can't fford a forge one.

Are these ones rated to 300bhp ?

How it used to be when it 1st went on but was too much in your face for my liking

during fitting before it was centred more next to the standard cooler

All painted black in stealth mode

ghetto ducting has been replaced with proper neoprene stuff that forge uses.

Should be big enough has a deep enough core aswell.

No probs bud.

Well there has been mixed thots about this subject, there is guys who use these uni intercoolers running them type of figers.

Plus i think the uni one looks better reason being they fit perfect in your bumper vertical and u can see the pipes at the side, But thats my thots.

Here's my Forge FMIC,

Never got round to refitting some mesh so the stealth factor is non-existant, may mesh it later in the year

Cupramillo looks good, but whats happened to your LCR front splitter?

Cheers mate, i have never had a LCR front splitter, since i had it lowered i cant get into my driveway without scraping my bumper. If i had a splitter on the front it wouldnt last 2minutes. I could either make the car higher and have a splitter(which i dont want to do) or leave it lowered with out a splitter.

 

[turbo009]

Just looked at your pics again, and see what you mean mate. Didn't realize how low you was lol

 

[cupramillo]

The car is low, but not stupid low, too many speed bumps. Its just my drive way is a right basta*d, short steep entry, no matter what angle or speed you come in at, its scrapage time!
