did you order them locally or are they hongkongers?

"Turbo's make torque, and torque makes fun"

"did you know you can toast potato waffles?"

They were off ebay (auto performance) im sure they are UK based, still have to go trough all the ebay hassel though.

I still think black would look better! What do you think?

Black.

In the 13's at last!.. Just

black, it wont be as obvious.

blue is too in your face, might as well have INTERCOOLER written on your bonnet with two arrows pointing to it. IMO lol.

yeah you want black really. just had a quick look on the bay and i notice they have a phone number listed. probably best to get straight on the phone to them and explain whats happened mate - be easier than messing around with emails back and forth for days!

Agree with Ian. Looks OK with the blue, but will look much better with black.

Cool, just what I was thinking! :)

or wrap them with amalgamating tape if its going to slow you down on the build!

If Carling made Mini engines
it would probably be like this one!

thats just what i was thinkng john , ,duct tape !!

Medusa + injection = too much torque for the dyno ..https://youtu.be/qg5o0_tJxYM

the core on mine is 520x130x50mm (3380000 cubic mm compared to your 4100000 cubic mm so yours is actually larger)

i think the cores are going to be pretty similar, mine might be more restrictive, but may have the edge in efficiency due to being thinner etc,

your end caps are much nicer though!

Not sure about number plate?

Im half tempted to paint one on, could either hide the IC nicely or look really trashy!

Ive thought about an oval one for the bonnet and just stick it above the holes.

Joe the core size is 100mm X 100mm X 410mm, how does that compare with yours?

I Phoned auto performance and they said that because all of the other hoses I ordered were blue thye took the initiative to send them all in blue (thinking I had made an error when ordering) I suppose it makes sense. They are sending me out a coupler hose I need FOC and will refund me on the others and pay for carriage back to them and send me some black ones instead. Can't say fairer than that. :)

I couldn't cover them in tape, especially after spending the best part of £40 on them. Lol

Looks like it'll mid next week before I get to drive it again!

Thats suprising, I thought the core on yours looked alot bigger! TBH I bet there is not much in it, if you can blank either side of your cooler off it would probably work better than mine, im going to struggle to duct mine. lol

What about cutting up tha valance and putting it behind it Matt?
Or wont it fit?

Warning:Stig in Training

Have you seen the chunk ive already cut out?

Ive left a gap behind the IC so its not up close to the subby aswell at the top.

Nice job mate

Ace mate!!
Bit worried about that IC though.
A flying stone,too high a speedbump. Very easy to damage down that low.

Warning:Stig in Training

Excelllant!!!
Looks tip top mate.

Back once again like a renegade master

nice job buddy, what are the blue pipes for coming out of your plenum

Team Racing

Cheers guys! :)

Jim the blue pipes are for my, FPR, MAP sensor, Boost gauge, and actuator.

They all came off one point on the TB before and were giving some false readings, seem to be much more consistant like this.
