Hi,
Does anyone know if an intercooler core can be shortened(between the end tanks) IC in question is a 2wd cossie one.
Failing that a custom one for a good price?
Cheers,
Gavin :)

Should be possible if done carefully.

Every day is a school day ...........

How fast and how expensive ...... the same question...

its not really possible. well it is-but it will probably cost you more than a custom one, and thus not viable. The end of the core needs to be removed and refixed. It will probably ruin itself and then the end caps will some how need refixing

you can cut down the height-but custom end tanks will be needed then

I would have though Forge could do it, no idea how much it would cost however.

It would be handier just to buy a new core.

9.85 @ 145mph
202mph standing mile
speed didn't kill me, but taxation probably will

it wugld be doable to cut it length ways, but temoving the end plate frm the cores would be a nightmare.
