Made a start on my intercooler setup today (well half hours worth of sawing).

My IC pipes are all in place just waiting for a few others to arrive from the bay.

Pics of end caps to follow later on (hopefully)!

I just want to know where this is going to go? You've hardly got room under the bonnet for it.

Bat style?

End caps aren't even started yet! Lol

Still trying to get the courage up to cut my front valence to pieces, waiting for second opinion to arrive! *laughing*

End caps ive decided to make a square into round shape instead of a pyramid straight into hose outlet.

I think I know how to do it, but any advise (possible if Paul wiginton reads this) of doing it?

Hi,
I'd recommend the way I did it, I might be biased though. *surprised*
Cut up some bits of ally, drill a big hole in one and get it all tigged together, repeat for the other end.
The angles will help with air flow too *wink*
Cheers,
Gavin :)
