as above really

which one and why??

 

FMIC is better, Charge coolers are better for sprints and ź's

 

I wouldnt rate chargecoolers at all, spend over Ł600 on a pace one and even bought an extra Pace water radiator to try and get the ACTs down but did it fuck

75 deg ACTs

Total waste of money

 

i know what your saying T28 but i dont really want to cut my front panal for a FMIC to fit (if i can help it)

im finding my self turning towards Pro Alloy ( but you have to cut your front panal )

 

i didnt have to cut the front panel to fit my GRS. moved the rad back a little and a tiny little bit cut out of the bumper.cant see any off it untill you open the bonnet.

 

cut the front panel????!!! why?? you dont have to with a GRS or cut the bumper!!

 

you do with the pro alloy for the fans

get a GRS then it's a better cooler!! i have 2 kenlowe fans and never had to cut any panel

 

is your car a seies 1 or 2 mate

 

series 2

 

thats why then mate on a series 1 you have to do a bit of cutting to make the fans fit

 

ah i see, cant you put the fans between the rad and cooler by moving the rad back a bit?

 

i did post about the fitting of the cooler a while ago but all i did was put 2 very small cuts with a junior hack saw blade. then bend the piece of steel down out of the way( warm the paint up first with a heat gun or sumut to stop the paint from cracking ) then paint the split with touch up paint basically doing this makes it very simple to put the car back to normal if you so wish later on as all u ned to do is bend the flap of steel back up and a couple of ver small welds and a touch up pen and u would never know... i had to bend mine up because there were no fitting instructions then or the supply of silicon hoses but i had the rad and cooler set up and its pretty good.

the 2 splits need to be about 15 mm deep half way on each of the 2 lower grill mounts on the front panel, u also need to cut half of the lower mount on the grill to clear the fans i will try and find a link to the pics

 

here u go.

in the first pic u can see where i cut the lower mounts on the grill itself

in the second pic u can see where i put a very small cut with a junior hack saw, as i said i bent mine up as i all but had the intercooler in and just needed clearance, so u put a cut half way along the lower grill mount on the steel panel matching the cut on the grill. do he same on the other mount bend teh piece of steel down and touch up where u put the cuts.
