**** NEED INTERCOOLER URGENTLY!!! ****
Turbo Mini Forums

Hey there as the title states I'm looking for an intercooler to fit at the front of my roundnose mini. Preferably something that's already been modified to fit in already. If it isn't though would still be interested. Not looking for anything where the grille wont fit etc tho...

I have a standard dizzy & alternator so it would have to be compatible with that also obviously. If anyone has 1 just collecting dust on the garage floor would be a big help :) . If so if you could swing us a picture please & a price.

Thanks for looking.

If no one replies go to a local scrap yard :) lots of diesels run intercoolers think astra has a small one so do rovers :)

With a standard dizzy, your going to struggle to get one in without disturbing the grill. The landy td5 is the only one I can think of, and it requires a slight bend. I have a custom alloy one made by ah fabrications, requires the starter motor rotating and the grill spaced out 10mm, hardly even noticeable

I have a standard R5 GTT intercooler if of any use to you

Yeah whatever goes in will have to be tinkered with to fit I'm sure...just trying to keep it to a minimum... the landrover td5 def is a skinny bitch lol...anyone got a 2wd cosworth lying around??

Thanks for the offer craigie b but I've actually alreay got a r5 GTT & it has no chance of fitting somewhere practical!

Put your location in your profile pat71.

i had a custom one made for the front of my mini that i would be willing to part with, it was made with a quality pace core however its been in and out a few times so is scratched would be looking at £70 (about 1/3 of what it cost to make)

I am in the middle of building a loft in my garage and all my parts are boxed up so cant sort it out for a proper photo until middle of the week at the earliest

you can see it in this photo

Wolfie that's a bargain at £70, much, much more than mine

Any modifications needed to fit it in wolfie? Do you have an under the bonnet pic of it showing where the ports are etc also? Thanks.

Intercooler purchased. Many thanks to Benross for organizing the shipping of the intercooler asap for me. Appreciate the effort steve. Thanks to all who offered advise also.

A pleasure pat
