For you guys that have done this before, I am wanting to cut the end cap off and rotate it 90degrees so it faces upwards, what material is it made from? So I can nick a couple of rods from work Audi s4 b5 - 470bhp & 486ft lbs

You will need an AC TIG welder to weld the end tanks.

The end tanks on the Cossie intercoolers are very thick and sturdy, and made from a good material. That was what my welder told me at least. On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:

Yes they are quite thick. Benny have you got a bandsaw to cut the end tanks off square and neat? This is the key to making a job of it. I can do this if you want to bring it round.

Yo Han that isn't a Cosworth intercooler, looks like an Escort RS Turbo one to me.
