Default Matt Black cossie cooler

What u think? Still very much WIP. I'm not a fan of cut outs at all, but thinking of something similar to this for summer use. Not sure what to do about plate - as this one is far too clumsy looking. Either a smaller one, or EVO style square

Twin Cossie one eh ??
Looks good. What have you done ref charge carrier and hoses ?
Still looking into ideas for mine before I go for it.

I don't think you should go for a square plate. Look gay imo, unless it's on an Evo or a pulsar GTi-R.
Go smaller would be my suggestion. Try and stay as legal as poss tho to stop the feds causing you grief

Horrible Rick!!

Cut-outs suck...even if they are functional. Do you think it's necessary with the Twin Cossie Cooler? Will you see high ACT's in the summer?

Cut outs suck yes. Sometimes i regret getting rid of my chargecooler setup - never had a prob with it. I'd have to do some testing, but logic says this is going to be better. I've not done a full hot summer with this cooler, so want to see how water temps are then. I do think it looks better than GRS style silver though.

Might bad boy it

I wouldn't do a full cut out Rick. Maybe trim the centre bar down a little and make it thinner but not get rid of it totally...
