Toyosports fmic for AUQ

[Bouncerbeater]

I have been looking at fmics for my LC amongst other bits for moving on from stage 1.
Was wondering if anyone had any experience of the Toyosports fmic kit. Obviously the Forge one is good but it is twice the price. Thoughts ?

The toyo one (600x300) is what people refer to as the wellycooler. A lot of people use them and there's a guide to fitting it. Lots of good reviews on it too.

Often wondered what folks were referring to when talking about "wellycooler "
Excuse my ignorance. Now I know

I've had a toyosport intercooler and also made a guide: http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=349719

But I would go with a bigger intercooler (wellycooler)

Would be looking at a 600x300x76
Would hope to keep fogs etc if possible. Want to keep looking as stock as possible

That welly cooler is a hell of a lot harder to fit on a Cupra then it is a Cupra r as the pipe work is different and there is nowhere near enough room behind the bumper.

Groan, that's not what I wanted to hear. Is the Forge kit worth the extra money, with the altered bumper bar etc ?

Actually mine was 80mm the welly cooler is 76, that didn't help as I had to mount it back further. I will try dig up some old pics.

The forge one uses the rubbish standard pipe run on the drivers wheel arch.

Fabricated my own passengers side pipe work as didn't like the Toyo way, water mist jets on bottom of cooler to. To get it far enough back I removed the front panel brace bars and replaced them with thick steel brackets from the cooler.
