New turborev smic fitted
« on: 15 October 2011, 17:38 »
It fitted well ,apart from oil in the old intercooler again.  :cry: i might get a catch can. The oil that came out filled a paint roller tray, you know the big ones you put paint in one side well it filled the bit were the paint goes  :shocked: They should put sump plugs on intercoolers.  :laugh:

1.8 petrol.No mods needed but i was pissed off my old intercooler never had the 10mm plug to block the hole in new one ,it didnt even have one on the old one.I made a alloy plate and gasket with black silcon and bolted it over the hole.Seem to hold the boost, touch wood.  :wink: Bumper was easy to remove and refit with 2 people.  :wink:
