Here is the general idea of where I am heading..

Fd3BOOST 05-10-2004 09:51 PM

A few things I dont like about the front mount. Moving the radiator out of its original location I think sucks. Since I dont have it here in front of me I dont know how I can improve that general set up. As far as ducting etc. I had added extra ducting to my M2. I would be filling the holes around a front mount as well to best route the air. But my problem with the M2 and a singel turbo is the tight bend in the turbo to intercooler pipe, plus I would like to clear out some space in the engine bay. Anyone who has the 3 row car to chime in?

relocating the rad was the main thing I didn't like about the greddy. The junk ass brackets they sent looked like a 5 year old made them. Dee ended up throwing them out and making his own after ******* with them for a while.



V-mount isn't a bad idea but its expensive. Apexi isn't supposed to be too bad. Neither is Blitz.

Now you guys got me thinking twice and ****. How exactly does a V mount work with the radiator? I wish there were more images of set ups on the internet. We should have a catalog of all the parts and whatnot.

Plus i'm sure Phins can order you a greddy 3 row for the FD, since he sells greddy products.

No offence to Chuck but that V mount is way over priced. I would never pay that much for an intercooler. I could build one myself for under $300 if i had a decent TIG welder which I don't. Talk about mark up.

In Chuck's defense his V mount setup comes with a radiator also, not just the intercooler

Well that would explain the high price. Dohh. Sorry Chuck. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683664.gif
