looking to upgrade my intercooler for one of the turbo revs side mount units, trying to keep the OEM look but still upgrade.
they seem like a good upgrade for £100, anyone using these with a remap & mods? wondered how they perform as I really dont want to go down the overkill fmic route
thanks

I ran 225bhp on mine :wink:
-
sounds good to me then, was that with ur stage 2 remap?
-
That does sound good doesnt it? Who need s a front mounted one when you can acieve 225 with side mount. Cheers for the info wazzer, am gonna my wife to buy me one when she gets paid. :lipsrsealed:
-
the turbo revs is a good upgrade especially if u dont have the money for a ths front mount
-
order placed, so hope Matt & Chris @ dubunit have a few hours spare next week, KO3S,Forge TIP, intercooler and a stage 2 remap coming there way ( and an empty wallet coming my way ) :grin:

It ran the power fine but it did suffer from heatsoak. If you're not planning on going any further than around 225bhp they will be fine :smiley:

was looking at 230 max, but last time i said 200 & went with a stage 1 with goodies :grin:
as long as its nippy ill be happy :laugh:

Went to turbo revs in bolton to look at one a lot smaller than i thought, from pics. Tiny compared to my tyrolsport smic, worth £90 the cost new tho.

all i need is the pipe that goes to the intercooler and i can put mine on basically cut a few slits in the inner wheel arch to allow the hear to get out and air pass through
