i built a v-mount myself using a HKS FMIC and a Koyo Radiator. Like Martin said, you're really gonna need to modify the radiator to use in it a V configuration.



By earth upgrade.... you mean a grounding kit correct?

BTW, where are you from/located?

Yeah its a grounding kit made up of 16mm Ho7 VVf cable.

290 flywheel hp.

Im gonna salvage a intercooler from something else if thats the way i go. Im from UK. How did you do the V mount and what sort of figures ie coolant and inlet did u achieve.

thanks
