Universal intercooler, the guide.

To add, I noticed no lag/throttle response with mine at all

I have made a metallic Support to hold it on crash bar x2bolts and 3xbolts M8 in plastic

For those interested in fitting the biggest one you can, you can fit 280mm in height as that is where the plastic grill starts, it fits nicely behind the crash bar but you may need to chop off some of the plastic that it sits on.

Here's mine

Hey Queen, how thick is that intercooler?

 

[queen]

Thickness and length is the same, only the height is different.

Hi guys, first of all i read all the thread and it made me one big question.
Im now with a revo stg1 (226hp) and waiting for load a stg2 im looking for a fmic but my question is, what about height? because i only seen 1 ppl saying the temperature difference between OEM IC.
Turboboy wich temp dif you noticed with your IC?
Raptlier you bought finally the 180 height ic sure?

Thank you guys, really helpfull thread

 

[turboboy]

226bhp stage 1?

I don't and didnt have the tools to measure the temperature difference. It's a larger intercooler and its fitted in a better place to get more flow, it will be more efficient, how much I don't know. For £100-£120 I can't and don't expect the earth.

It looks good in the front as well.

Winner winner chicken dinner

 

[Maaki]

Yes.
You can see with vagcom. I think you cheked before fix the ic sorry.
I have revo air filter, plugs bkr7eix and remap set by revo performance spain

How about a watercooled intercooler?

 

[queen]

I don't think anyone has fitted a watercooled one, but lots of people have water spray and it lowers temp about 10°C.

 

[Big-Pete]

where the red lines are could i drill through the crash bar, and put a few bolts ontop so it stops moving,

or where does the cooler attach!?

 

[queen]

You're right, you should attach the cooler to the crash bar with brackets.

[turboboy]

In a word..... No. You don't need any of that pipe work and the 2 pipes you would need are not in that pile.

 

[MoorXD]

Could you send me a link of one on eBay or something like that
Is the size okay?
