Details sent guys.

 

i have one of these kits an they r the bollox well worth the money and i noticed a diffrence buy some now

 

I'm interested in knowing how to do this on my P1. Anything to reduce charge temps.

I've seen the Aussie website which shows spacers under the i/c mounts but it confuses the hell out of me as the mounts on my i/c are more towards the front rather than the rear. Surely they'll raise the front too.

Could I have the howto instruction too please David?

Thanks,

Vindaloo.

 

Sure, but can't see the e-mail icon on your thread for some reason.

If you let me know you're e-mail address i'll send em through.

cheers

Dave

 

Doh - it should be visible now though. I had it turned off in me profile for some reason....must have been a paranoid phase.

Vindaloo.

 

Me please, could you send me the instructions or details

 

Details are on their way

Dave

 

Ok, i am (finally) looking to make an attempt at this but have come slightly unstuck. Would anyone be able to supply details of the dimensions of the spacers, specifically height, or is it very much a trial and error process?


Thanks in advance.

 

Trial and error's much more fun

I ended up with a 22mm spacer on the non-turbo side of the car, and a smaller one (12mm IIRC) on the turbo side to level things up. Also modified the brackets that bolt onto the side of the I/C to get a better mating angle.

This is enough to get the scoop shield rubber almost (but not quite) touching the fins of the I/C at the back. Could have gone further but didn't want to defeat the object by allowing the rubber to crush those pesky fins. At some point I'll cut the rubber down a bit, allowing a little more tilt...

 

so it puts like a CORNER on yer intercooler

Me as well please...details that is

Details are on their way!

After making Andrew's set of spacers I made a smaller set to try on my own car, on my intercooler I had a shield fitted and before the spacers went on the rubber gasket that "sealed" on to the intercooler just about made a polished mark on the shield, with the spacers fitted the gasket has made a mark across the whole shield, with this I've come to the conclusion that the spacers just create a better seal forcing the air through the intercooler, whereas before it could escape around the seal.

Dave, sorry to be the umpteenth person to ask, but could you do the honours for me n'all.

Cheers

No problem, details on their way

Dave

 

Me 2 Dave if ya can find it in your heart.

I'd love details too please...

 

No worries, details are on their way

Dave

 

could you mail me details to dude

 

When you have a few spare mins please could you mail me details as well please..

Many thanks..

 

Details for me too please mate.

Cheers,
Steve

 

Details on their way - there must be a lot of you with these kits now any feedback or details of reduced intake temp?

cheers

Dave

 

Feels better, although that could be placebo effect. I also added a deflector into the scoop shroud at the same time, so might be the two working together.

Either way, I'll hopefully be putting an intake charge temp sender in at the weekend, if some other bits and pieces get finished quick enough, so should be able to get some direct tilt/flat comparison info soonish...

 

Can this be done on MY93 WRX?

 

I don't think it will fit. Unless I'm mistaken this tilt kit only works on the straight mount intercooler on my97 to my99.

Anyone tried it on pre my97?

Dave

 

Water spray it is then!

 

May I have a mail too please?

 

I bet you're bored of this but,
Can I have deatials of the tilt kit too?!

 

gees I hate to ask ya, but any chance I could get em from someone too?

Cheers

ps: any feedback yet on any gains?
