bowthruster Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Going to spray the new intercooler tomorrow then install it.Apart from trying to find some angle to make a bracket up,is it straight forward to fit and will it effect the running of the car?I do plan to get a td05 soon and then get remapped.Cheers
stants Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 Normally a pain to fit, have you all the pipework ready, I'd do a mock up. Then measure and re measure as theres usually some cutting of the inner wing or front beam, And expect some increased lag from the extra length involved. Take a load of pics along the way do a write up on here if you have the time :-D
bowthruster Posted October 11, 2014 Author Posted October 11, 2014 Cheers.Typical-not straight forward then.I might wait till ive got a tdo5 then fit everything all at once.
bowthruster Posted October 11, 2014 Author Posted October 11, 2014 Oh dear conflicting answers... Do any of the diy shops sell angle iron? to make these brackets up
quit Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 If it's a Wrx top mount it's pretty simple if you got the y pipe with it , you need a newage dump valve / compatible plate 1
stants Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 Sorry my fault I was assuming it was a fmic :O 1
bowthruster Posted October 11, 2014 Author Posted October 11, 2014 Ive got a baileys d/v on the standard cooler at the moment,where do I get a compatible plate from and how much do they cost.I have the y pipe as well.Thanks
bowthruster Posted October 11, 2014 Author Posted October 11, 2014 So what would you sugguest then matt?
bowthruster Posted October 11, 2014 Author Posted October 11, 2014 so its a forge or hks for a newage 2001 onwards then?
bowthruster Posted October 11, 2014 Author Posted October 11, 2014 Is this any good? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/subaru-impreza-newage-hks-ssqv-bolt-on-blow-off-valve-/301342306881?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item462966b241
Dino Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 Beware: There are some HKS SSQV fakes around with poor quality powder coat paint, without the "R" for registered next and above the HKS name brand. The HKS fake is a faded brand name rather than crisp and clear with the legitimate one. Also, the cir-clips are stainless steel with the HKS real one rather than steel for the fake one. 1
