how i fitted my uni intercooler

[sparkie1984]

damn, was gonna ask him for a discount!!! lol

stani, i just wondered if there was a specific reason thats all

 

[Adam180]

jus fitted mine yesterday, yes it is relitively striaght forward HOWEVER,
if u have airconditioning, your gonna have to cut small amounts of the bumper, its quite discrete so dont be scared, good sharp stanley knife does it, good luck, let me know what u think of mine on my progress thread

 

[sparkie1984]

glad you did it without the mesh mate, wondered what it looked like

yours looks good! but how comes you cut the bumper (i have air con)?

 

[Adam180]

because the this little compresser for the aircon sits infront of the radiator, so it pushed the intercooler forward, however if u didnt have aircon, or had removed it, it would fit snuggly behind the bumper, and or the mesh, however, i like it better without the mesh,

 

[sparkie1984]

yeah man it looks good! i only had the two rads on mine, no compressor so maybe you have a different setup

Looks a tidy set up mate. Atleast i know that when i can get my new bumper i wont need to trim as much off.

Is the left hand pipe squashed abit by the bumper??

hmm dont look very much in center..

 

[sparkie1984]

tarzan mines not centre either though, theres just not enough room with it in centre

 

[Mat]

definately not center. but as long as it works

 

[sparkie1984]

mines a bit less obvious with the grill in place

but at the end of the day im happy with mine, and it works, lol although i slipped on ice getting out to check

okey i see.looks good but i got mine i center.lbut i trimed alot more. maybe you can get som brakets from alex that i he made fore the pro alloy kit som you can move the radiator and ac further back.

 

[sparkie1984]

tbh i cant be arsed with it, mines off centre by 20mm not really enough to bother me! cheers for the idea though

yours looks like its cut right into the bumper, whereas i did nothing (lazy) lol

you getting some better ones instead?

got loads mate st/steel

 

[Reuvers]

You know I think I like the IC more with the feeds on the bottom, so opposite to what you guys have done...?

thought that was also the way its supposed to be?

btw this is the 140mm (height) intercooler right?

 

[sparkie1984]

Yeah I did like it like that too but would need cutting! Which I didn't wanna do!

 

[Reuvers]

sparkie was it the 140mm one height wise?

 

[stani540]

no reason for flipping it just the pipes will fit better i think, i chopped loads off the bumper!

i found the jubilees ok i used them and its fine, didnt use them where they are on show though

[sparkie1984]
