Front intercooler

[Anonymous]

I think somebody already speak about this but here in France there is nobody with front intercooler.

I put a good system of water vaporization on my top interccoler but I want to know if the car horse power or performance is better when the intercooler is in front even if the tube are longer.

(excuse my english)

is the stock intercooler removed from top to front is a good solution ? :roll:

yes, a front mount i/c is the best option,

with the top mount you get high levels of heatsoak when you`re not going fast and it isnt getting a good supply of air.

although, you can tune the r to fairly high levels whilst still using the top mount so unless you`re going for very high power or live in a very hot area i would`nt worry about it.

no problem with a longer air system (lot of tube) ??

I noticed a little more lag mate but not much, and I gained a fair amount of torque 8) .

The standard intercooler repositioned to the front will work fine for most applications theres one guy using the standard unit repositioned to the front with approx 500bhp :shock: so it can't be bad
