    Jimmy, is like a busy fella with heaps of extra busyness going on. He gets stuff from the UK but never has a minute. Should be better from now on as he has stopped working weekends on customers cars.

    Give him a rev up for sure.

    Seems to me that the Seat cooler, is the new Forge. VWindahouse's Polo goes like a train!

    All you have to do is connect some hoses

    Where did you get the cooler from (URL), and what pipes are you using; I was just going to get the STD forge ones.
    Are you going to fit thisyourself or do you have anyone that will be assisting...I only ask, cause i will def need assistance.

    Anyway, this is exciting...enjoy.
    You have to do your research !!!

    Cooler was from Ebay UK, just found someone selling one, they bought it and changed their mind. What pipes am i using, well i am buying some bends and silicon hoses and clamps and making it fit, basically i just copied the forge piping kit from a pic, not hard to do.

    I will fit it myself



    From a Seat Forum

    The kit comprises of
    2x S60 – 51 straight reducer
    1 x C 51 straight coupler
    1 x A 45-51 45 degree bend x 51 dia
    1 x 51 cut straight length x 335 mm long
    1 x A45-51 alloy tube
    1 x A90 -51 alloy tube
    1 x A90 – 51 alloy tube with map sensor
    All hose clamps
    Map sensor screws
    Plus cnc machines alloy couplers
