Think IIRC they did come out pretty good, but for the money they cost, not that good

I had one fitted for free when Performance Ford did the feature on it, Ive noticed a big difference over the smaller pace item on the ACT temps.

The fitment isnt brilliant thou it keeps lifting up off the bottom of the front panel.

Good cooler thou! I like how the fans are attached to it. Not sure if its worth the £600 thou!

I thought Pro-alloy cooler looks a bit bodgy... its an extended version of the original pace intercooler in my opinion.

Id go for GRS as its cheap, or the Karl Norris cooler for the best performance.

yeah shes in was a bit naughty to fit as nothing on the car is standard and the 1 1/2 hour fitting time thou quoted was a tad out

just want to know if my temps was high, low or about right


under full boost think it peaked at 47 and cruising at 80 off boost was arount the 25/30 mark
