ive got the pro alloy front mount intercooler on mine, ive also got a pro alloy rad to go with it, the intercooler comes with two fans which mount between the cooler and rad so you get rid of the original rad fan. the pro alloy cooler is made to not restrict flow to the radiator as much as other front mounts. i rang grs and was told their coolers do block air flow to the rad a touch so expect higher water temps but they are better coolers for the lowest act`s if you running very big bhp.

on a hot summers day, with my setup, the water temp reads just a touch above half way max no matter how hard the cars driven, so the air flow through the cooler, the fans which are mounted and the alloy rad make a good combo.........no front bumper mods either but thats something i will be changing soon coz when you look, most of the cooler is blocked off which is a shame.
