Will this intercooler fit?

[noone]

Personally, I have the Forge intercooler already so wont need all those bits. You could all group together if they are coming from different places but if you can find 1 supplier with all the parts, could be a winner.

Better yet, FLYINGTI was talking about being able to get this stuff, maybe he can put a kit together...

i May be able to help with this, BUT, ill need numbers and ill need to know more info. if you going with individual piping or the forge kit!
im also i turbosmart dealer so i can arrange some parts local from turbosmart for silicone bends which may lower the pricing.

as for the actual core, ill see if they can do a business deal if we have some good numbers!

But i can't see forge piping being the cheapest option!

ill have the forge set in my hands in a few days so i can replicate from there!

Hope this helps, haven't quite read through the whole thread but keep me upto date!

Cheers Matty

Thanks dude.

The general idea is to get cores, full kits as per the part #'s earlier in this thread and the brackets.

If you can line all that up, you'll be my hero.

There seems to be too much confusion in this thread, lets keep it simple.

No worries , ill start with seeing what i can do with the cores and move from there, piping is what I'm worried about most, but all should be okay if we organise well =)

keen on getting a complete kit(either individual piping or the forge kit, pending on cost)

[seangti]

Pretty sure the pipe work needs to be quite different to the forge polo fmic, as Anthony and Troy found with the seat coolers.

If anyone in Brisbane is interested I could be keen for a 3 person group buy, too (looking at you, Jason/Sean).

I'd been offline a few days and this happens. Interested, though I think I'll wait to see how people go with fitting and results before I commit. Certainly sounds viable but I jumped on the H&R spring bandwagon with all the excitement and that wasn't ideal.

For those in Brisbane coming to the Dyno day, have a chat to me about the FMIC I have on my car. Similar in design to the APR FMIC. Lets see the Intake temps after a few runs ..... (I have seen it before )

IMO much better than the Forge/Seat/this latest etc .....

Sean no sweat I haven't got money to do this immediately anyway so happy to wait a bit. Probably see better results doing my exhaust first seeing that's still stock than grabbing a couple PSI with this over the forge (for the time being, anyway).

Please share - what FMIC do you have / or was it bespoke built

[Sharkie]

Custom FMIC ...










45degree intake temps after 3 dyno runs ..... no pressure drop and 7kw atw gained .... less than $1000 fitted

[clicht]

looks good....thanks.do you by any chance has measuRements.
7kw is a fair amount of gain

Is this from comparisons? I know the original Forge has been compared to the APR and yours looks like the APR (Treadstone TRV) design but is it as good and have you had it compared with the SEAT (or seen a comparison somewhere)?

Not being antagonistic - I just want to know.

Looks like just a cheap Ebay core to me.

But hey, if it works. There is one of those sitting in Tims workshop that Josh bought for his polo but never fitted

I wouldn't be so quick to say your cooler is better than the SEAT.

Just going off real world data from a VDCS I can easily show with logs that after more than 6, 3rd gear pulls to just over redline up a steady incline back to back with just a u-turn in between the SEAT cooler did not register temps more than 30 degrees at any stage. I have the logs that I can email anyone who wants them (thanks Gav) I think you'll agree 45 degrees v's 30 is a bit of a difference even when you take ambient temps into consideration.

I guess this Saturday will confirm everything.
