Here's a bit about the recycled intercooler
On my black Focus.... ![]() After the fire, you can see the inlet pipe behind the engine and beside the front wing, and the long pipe from the compressor side of turbo is sitting on the drivers side seat, after being chucked from the road after the fire... ![]() ![]() ![]() After picking them out of the car... ![]() After cutting the dented bit out, tig welding a new piece in, sand blast and powder coat in satin black for a little change from the original look... ![]() With some custom Roose hoses and a 700x220x70mm intercooler, trial fitting so far so bare with me ![]() ![]() ![]() Getting there slowly, had the car a month now, but I think in that time the work I've done is quite impressive, baring in mind the loss of the black one is still hovering

Nice!!! Needs the wheels painting. Silver or Black I think.
Pity about the black one, it was a lovely motor! But if you did that with a 1.4 shopping car, where will the RS end up. 500bhp monster?

Fantastic car mate, I think the wheels would be better standard, but I love it! I made you this, Won't last long on here, so you might want to use one of the three images. But, will be okay for most other forums.
![]() Keep up the good work, Benni. |

Www, that's clever, cheers for that Benni
But the wheels have got to go, their immaculate, but the Compomotive's are IMO the best wheels on a Ford. Gotta be done again Oh, look out for me in Liverpool Benni, I'm there a lot

Newly revised Intercooler system now fits a treat, after a bit of alteration work to allow more clearance from the air con, as the black didn't have that.
Note, the filter is for sale after next week when the Group A comes ![]() ![]() ![]()

Just some updates to keep this thread alive
Had some time to fit my new wheels today, so here's a couple of pics. Sorry, no arty farty pics like usual, didn't have much time, hence the blurryness... ![]() ![]() ![]() These are for sale if anyone wants them. Packed and ready to go to a new owner... ![]() ![]() ![]() And off subject of wheels, who wants to guess what I'm making for track days? Looks very rough here, started making it a day after my tonsilectomy :doh: so wasn't really up to it, but these were taken a while back and it looks much better now, and will soon have a nice gloss black coating. Will feed enough air to me nice big Group A ![]()

Took some pics this morning of how she stands. A little dissapointed I couldn't get a manifold in time, but I don't think it looks too bad after just 2 months of ownership
The headlamp pod will be ready, so that will be on in the show too! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

As you've probably read in one of my previous threads, I was busy making a duct for my Group A filter for track/show use. Here's how it started, using a posh Carte Dor ice cream tub for the duct
![]() ![]() ![]() But because it was quite difficult to work with from the outside mold, I made another mold from the inside of headlamp lense. Which IMO looked more original because the fibreglass resin showed all the small details like the lines on the upper lens and the Ford logo etc. ![]() ![]() Making tatty brackets, which will be changed when I have enough time to focus on the pod more after Ford Fair. Which includes all impure sections due to lazy filler rubbing ...![]() ![]() Then had it painted in gloss black to match the bumper fins and fog surrounds... The hardcore ending ![]()
