Tonight I have fitted a new bad ass intercooler to the front of my beloved 850, I was goin to fit an uprated 850 one from swedeland, but I thought it wouldnt be big enough, so I though lets fit an uprated RS500 cooler!!!!! what u think?
What are the charge temps like now then speshy boy? Does the turbo spool any quicker or is there even more lagg? :troutslap
[QUOTE=BlackBeast]What are the charge temps like now then speshy boy? Does the turbo spool any quicker or is there even more lagg? :troutslap[/QUOTE] Don't know bout the charge temp, the only way to do that is with a heat gun on the rolling road, dont fancy putting a gauge in just for that, and as for the spooling up bit, i dont know, it aint running yet, need to get some pipe work 2morrow, as it says ive only fitted the cooler, nothing else, no planning, but that just me, lololololol
Looks good mate very shiny!
Mind your turbo don't freeze up this winter!
Looking 'horny' ;) Very nice
Hi Spesh very nice and shiney, i take it you do not have air con? What was the cost in the end? I know some peeps from Volvospeed paid a packet for their imported I/C's form Sweden.
Nice, sometimes the cheaper option is just to take a cooler from another car, that you know has a good core, such as the RS500 cooler, or the Pulsar GTi-R one which has a Calsonic core, and make it fit. Mine is a pulsar one that had the end cut off and rotated, then the exit pipe rotated on the already rotated end tank, bit of custom piping and voila, and a good site cheaper than the £600 kit for a FMIC on the car.

Looks good, looks huge though! Who makes FMIC kits for the cars these days?
Sweeet.. I like it a lot man, very sexay!
