First off, hello all, im new here.

I have a small turbo escort cosworth and ive a quick question.

I know most people will probably say, no need dont do it but here goes.

Can you fit an RS500 style intercooler into a t28 escort cosworth that has a/c or will it not fit? I like the look of them at the front and im considering getting it done, any advice/info would be greatly appreciated.

did it on my small turbo escort.its a tight fit and i had to take the aircon rad out then have it regassed when it was put back in.
regasing cost 80 quid

So it can actually be done, as long as you get the air con regassed?

Glass Eye

yes it can be done.
the rad moves nearer the engine too as on all rs500 ic conversions. just need to get it closer to the engine till it all fits in.
was easier when the front bumper was taken off tho. good luck mate

I'll take the front bumper off, cheers for the info.

Have you any tips on what way to do things?

It can be done - seen it on a few small turbo cars but never tried it myself.
Does look a bit tight with 3 rads !!!!

Cheers for the info guys....glad it can be done, with that intercooler on escort cosworths it looks stupidly mean. I want one!!! Anyone recommend any specific make? GGR?RadTec? Or where is good to buy from? Ebay?
