Good man for taking it on the track! Looks better lowered, were the pics taken before or after the springs had settled? Still looks a little too high

Good man, have you got the hosing and pipework for it? How much did it cost you? it looks like a universal FMIC

£65 is not bad at all, the forge kit is a bit expensive for what it is imo I am looking out for a double pass to make it easier on the fitting side but what i save in fitting will be spent on the cooler,
Sounds like a bargain

That's a good price, although have you worked out the volume / efficiency of cooling etc?
I plumped for the Forge one, was meant to be £680 + Delivery, but managed to get a deal done with them for £540 or so I'll fit it myself and has all the clips, hoses, joiners, pipework and FMIC calc'd for the car

erm, yesss.... lol.
all i can say is, the standard one is totty (smaller than a bit of A4 paper i think lol) and sits beside the radiator so this one will be in direct airflow in it's huge mouth so theoretically (sp), it should be better. was only £65 so meh, live and learn  lol

Thats true, although will you experience more lag etc because of it, there's that element to think of too.
