How hard and is it worth it ............


fitting a 4x4 or a 2wd sapphire cosworth standard intercooler???



Help me please


ben

 

No...not in my opinion....I did it with a 2wd cooler a few years back. I wouldn't bother again....just look out for a second hand GRS imo.

Unless your goingBIG power when maybe 2 cossie coolers

 

agree with jon on this one two would be the better option , tim and ollie both use nms twin cos setups

 

i guess it would be alot easyier to plum a intercooler in that the inlet and outlet pipe on the same side



Has the standard standard intercooler got to be changed when the boost is turned up past 10 psi, or what bhp can they take ???



Ben

 

depends how u drive. upto 14psi is fine in short bursts, after that u lose power.

 

i will only use the car at weekends and cruise nights really, and i don't really drive it hard anyway

could just put my hand in my pocket and buy a intercooler i guess.



Ben

 

have alook on ebay for a already converted cossie intercooler, thats where i picked mine up from, i got mine for Ł50 with all the hoses etc.

 

GRS

 

For cheapness in comparison Cos coolers area good upgrade.

Keeping existing radiator? You may have to cut the bottom of your bumper out to fit the cooler infront of the rad at the bottom of the car.

Hoses: two options for fitting. Reverse charge carrier then pipe up the left-hand side straight to carrier, or keep original carrier and buy some hosing which comes back on itself, then run some pipework over the top of the intercooler then up the right-hand side fixing onto the original carrier boost hose.
