I am not planning to move anything round, and am looking for a location where the oil cooler and radiator remain in their front mounted position.

Ah well, it was just that I was hoping someone might have already successfully fitted one, which would save me time working out what pipes I would need.

I found this photo of a tidy intercooler setup installed in a Mk2 Metro Turbo, I think i'll definitely try something similar. Unfortunately the website this car was featured on gives no details about it.

On my weblog some pictures of the ford cosworth 4wd intercooler I fitted. A very tight fit and I had to modify the inlet.

I fitted a escort rs turbo intercooler next to the rad on the right (as you look at the front of the car). Positioned longways top to bottom the pipe feeds can be routed quite easily and you get excellent flow over the intercooler without obstructing the rad. You need to cut the bonnet slam panel a little bit but its all quite neat!

Had a look the other day,due to the bonnet being symetrical-you can fit the secondary lock on the lh side with some captive nuts to hold it to the bonnet ,and cut a square hole in the slam panel
