Just one question, do you think it will be big enough? :shock:
That looks pretty impressive, 8)
I really love reading this forum, most people just talk about doing this kind of stuff, here everyone just gets on and does it :lol:

May have to look at fiiting a new cooler like this myself, a while back I won a supra item for the grand sum of ?21+p&p. For some reason the seller wont tell me the p&p price so I can get a cheque off to him. Do you think it has anything to do with the fact that 2 days after I won it 2 coolers went for about ?100 each? :roll:
i think thats defo why he wont post it out to you i paid ?120 for my intercooler which i think is a good price for one this size

i bloody hate it when they do that...threaten neg feedback,then try to get ebay to make him respond (although they are practically useless) ,failing that go to his house,rape his cat and stuff it through his letterbox :shock:
as you can tell ive no time for ebay wasters! You def got a bargain though,just hope he responds soon.
Podge o2 went into the post this morning,no charge sir.
cheers paul your a gent ill sort you out a bear at jae :D

i went to look over a car for my nephew and this guy had a pug 205 gti there for parts so after i looked over my nephews car ten pounds later and they were mine had to trim all the crap off the sides but they fit perfect :D
which way the fans blowing.. down i guess?.. vent in boot..whats the plan?..

I've got mine blowing down from the top through the intercooler... but that will only be for low speed and when sitting in traffic. Theres a scoop underneath the hole in the floor for high speed 50mph+ where I doubt the fan will be able to do anything.
So.. low speeds... airflow down through intercooler via fan.
High speeds, fan switched off... airflow up through boot and out through top.
Would be good if I could wire the fan in to switch off automatically at 50-ish.
the fans blow up off the floor and will exit around the number plate so i wont need a bootlid mod and the low pressure at the back of the car will drag the air up and out well thats the plan anyway :D

podge those fans and that whole IC set up is truly excellent,hats off to you sir!
John you might as well leave the fan running constantly,it wont blow through the tightly packed fins of the IC that well,its too densly packed for that...well the supra one is anyway....the fan on the supra one really only blows onto it rather than through but the way you have the ducting underneath and the fan on top is more than adequate in my opinion,its certainly better than the way i had mine.
finaly finished this tonight but to dark for piccies so ill arm myself with my camera tomorow and get some my car is now fan powered aswell :D
youl see tomorow!
"had to trim all the crap off the sides but they fit perfect" lmao.. :lol:

thats the best lookin boot fridge ive seen... whats the deal with the number plate then?.. how are you going to mount it with air escape
what im doing is covering the outside with stainless mesh cutting the plastic rear panel and mounting the number plate about an inch further out than std so the air can escape around the plate easier and still sort of keep the car looking standard well thats the plan :D

well thats the twobrutal BBQ sorted for JAE2006!!! we'll just slap the grub on podges intercooler!
Seriously mate,looking good and the plan for the number plate vent sounds good too,cant see a problem with that,i think you're building the most efficient IC set up ive ever come across on a 1.5.
haha paul...
podge- that is seriously good designing..love it..negates having to cut up the lid..good thinking..
maybe if you hindge the plate at the top, the faster you go the harder itll be to read..!! :wink:
