Intercooler experts required info :)
« on: 02 October 2013, 15:33 »
Hey guys had a look at this kit and it seems to have everything I would need for my AUM, I have read there feedback and im abit concerned it seems this seller sells these kits in auctions as well as buy it now and if they don't go for a price there happy with they refund and say it out of stock, others have said they rang to ask questions about parts fitting only to find they don't. Anyway the item is below, what do you think?

pipework is only 2" which will be restrictive.

best bet is a toyosports core and custom pipework, going down this route in the new year

I did the Toyo cooler and custom pipework route, it can be a pain getting it all lined up but much better in my opinion than the cheaper versions available
ARZ K03s, Oettinger Side Skirts, R32 front, Carbon stage 2, Forge 007p (yellow spring), Forge Actuator (yellow spring), Pipercross panel filter with DSG parts, N249 and N112 deleted, SAI deleted, Carbon canister deleted, Rear wiper deleted, Long Life turbo back custom exhaust with 200 cell sports cat, VR6/G60 clutch kit, Creation Motorsport TIP, Catch can, 'Wellycooler', K04 charge pipe, S3 ported inlet manifold - looks pretty standard on the outside though :)
