DEI intercooler
« on: 26 August 2009, 10:51 »
Apologies if this is a repost, but featured in Golf+ this month. Fill it just with tap-water. Retail price from the states is approx £116. Could it be an alternative to uprated SMIC or even FMIC??

I think Topher is experimenting with something like this for his wagon.

I realise that Barry, but 90% of the time on a small turbo such as 03 or 03s is a large front mount a bit of overkill I wonder... :smiley:

So you put Topher up as guinea-pig nominee Adam, good man :wink:

Reading that sounds like those R-tech boys were gonna have a play with standard i/c while mapping.
