UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

whitepolo - sure its easier with the inlet and outlet on the same sides..

but for years "double pass" intercoolers have not been favourite of some...

its only ever done for ease of fitment.

LeMeph - cheers dude

is there really any major difference in using two standard intercoolers rather then one all singing all dancing fancy pants one? see i like this idea cause its cheap, and i do cheap well lol.

i think im gunna buy the biggest universal intercooler i can fit in the gap at the front and, then go to my local exhaust specialist and they can make up pipes all i will need is silicone hoses and the map sensor t piece, most uni coolers are £90 or less plus £100 for pipes and £50 for silicone so say £250 and will look prefesh!! And be different i like 2 be different!! most of my ideas from this made in south africa

Hey , good link there, Just had a look on their site.
And as they have the intercooler and turbo upgrades for the TDI 1.9! Well im obliged to help my car out??? No?
Also where can i get these from in the uk? Or cant i. Really would lie to add a better intercooler!

i asked em they have to ship it over from SA its a brilliant company who make affordable mods that are good too, if only we had one over here for polos, there is nothing except forge who rip your pants down!!

I have asked the owner of the shop in south africa if he can just send me the fitting kit without the intercooler as postage with it is a bit steep! Then i could source an intercooler from UK for cheaper and fit the lot! He sent me some photos b4 of the fitting kit and it look good ill try find em! found em

i try to get pics for you....

just need a few clear days... so i can get it sorted...

could do, but some of the fellas in the land of Oz have relocated just a few inches and it gives them the space! maybe some one could shed some light!

calling Oz owners! lol

ill stick with my forge one you just cant beat quality engineering and parts

but this looks a good alternative for someone not wanting to spend so much and fit it them selves as a bit of a project

KC - you are spot on... thats what i'll do... really only need a little more space...

but then I might have to lose the airbox .. and I really fancied keeping it sort of standard looking if you now what I mean...

itching to get going but need a few more little bits...
