front Mounted Intercooler

[LUFC]

Hi, i've had a search around but couldnt realy find any information about fitting a universal frount mounted intercooler like this
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/UNIVERSAL-BAR...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item2a0531c972

I can get the alloy pipe to connect it up for nothing as much as i need aswel.

So is it possible to fit one to my fr tdi,anyone done it before?

Thank you

Best option for a MK4 FR TDI PD130 is to fit the Seat Sport FMIC from a Cupra TDI PD160

The SS FMIC is around £250 iirc and is well worth it

If you can get the pipework for free (and silicon connectors I assume) then you might be better off buying a SEAT Sport FMIC. It has a large core and probably better flow than an ebay universal one! With regards to the intercooler you have linked, you would be better off with a twinpass set-up (inlet and outlet on the same side) as it will make the pipework easier.... unless you are going to be really creative and re-route it all!

I am also looking to uprgrade to a FMIC in the warmer months and I was wondering if anyone had done a custom/universal jobbie!
