January last year I noticed I had a very bad oil leak coming from my intercooler and found the intercooler was leaking badly where the plastic sides join into the metal middle section. After looking into a new replacement, I found for the same cost I could fit a custom front mounted intercooler with custom stainless and silicone pipework which would look much better.
Took a while to work out where I'd route the pipes and what pipework I'd need, but managed to do it Was quite a bit of work and pretty fiddly but managed to get it all to fit. Seems to have made a noticeable difference, engine just feels like it's breathing better and more responsive, but some of that may be due to the boost pressure I was loosing with my old intercooler leaking. |
