beefy I didn't realise you are extending the front wings and bonnet to be able to fit it all in. It won't fit m8.
there are many tried and tested big intercoolers for the RST use one of them.

the youth, it DOES fit

but it is overkill. . GRS etc are more than sufficient, also blocks a shed load of airflow to rad.

I have seen a pic of a series 2 with an RS500 cooler in it, but the work getting it in is immense. GRS would probably be a better bet m8

Yes, my GRS works well. ACT's are about 5° above ambient when cruising and are currently (in 3-5°c ambients) around 10°c when under light boost.

Most importantly, the full boost temps are great at 2 Bar.

I have a reversed crossover pipe converted from an FRST one. It is the prototype and is currently being powdercoated. I will be producing them soon! Once a couple more are made this one will be up for sale!

it does fit but not with the s2 front panel,sure andy(b8) had to change to a s1 front panel iirc
good mod if you want to be different but not really needed as the grs is just as good
