Im thinking of replacing my 2wd intercooler with a 4x4 item. Im in curretly striping my can and replacing some items and cleaning etc.
Would i see a difference in performance over with the 4x4 intercooler?? Or will it need to be mapped before gains are seen??
Also are they hard to fit?? I heard that its easy, just drill afew more mounting holes and thats that. Will I need new boost pipes to fit it??
thanks for any help

Ok mate.
Does this mean that the 4x4 cooler is deeper than the 2wd drive one?? Rather than being longer??
Just trying to get my head around the size of it.

It will fit fine with good results i think the 4x4 cooler is 50% bigger overall
you will also have to bend down 2 metal tags on the top of the rad if it is 2wd rad but hopefully you will have the 4x4 rad that is a little shorter easy done with a set of plyers

OK mate thats kool. Sounds easy!! Just dont want to buy new boost hoses. Im sure its a 2wd rad, it looks like the original item, the cars only done 50k and only been used for 5 years so im sure its not been changed lol.
