Hi!

I would like a not expensive but good intercooler kit for my 1.8T (180HP). I've got Sport RR version with Top Sport spoilers.
I looked the Forge complet IC kit for Leon, but that is very expensive. (http://www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/content.asp?inc=product&cat=1305&product=FMSEAFMIC)
I found this on Ebay yesterday: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...=ADME:B:WNA:MT:12&viewitem=&item=300094003959
You think, is this good for Leon too? The motor and the others arrangement same as mine.
Or somebody can tell me another kit?
Thanx and sorry for my english!

The 180bhp intercoolers have the intake and exit pipes on the same side if im not mistaken, unlike that one on ebay where they are opposite sides like the Cupra R's

Go on awesome-gti.co.uk and they have 2 intercooler kits for about £500-700 neuspeed and forge i think

have a butchers!

end of the day you get what you pay for....dont want to spend much money on an FMIC? then dont expect a good one

reason the Forge FMIC's are the price they are, is because they have been specifically developed for the cars they advertise to fit, tested, tried and offer great improvements, but of course at a cost, but the point is you know it will fit and work perfectly with your car....unlike an FMIC of ebay which you have no idea if it will work or not, is the core big enough, size of end tanks etc

my advice - go the extra mile and buy a "properly" developed FMIC for your car and not any cheap crap!
