Never seen that before, it doesn't seem to be in the shop either so can't get a price. Might be worth it if it's not too expensive. Definately worth getting a price.

Scoobymania is (I believe) the MRT supplier in the UK - although there may be others. Anyway, there's prices there I think their 'uprated intercooler' (as opposed to 'Scoobymania uprated intercooler) is the MRT one.
But you could just ring them instead of listening to my blathering

He's normally sniffing around here somewhere

I had the MRT TM for some time, and it's a BIG improvement over the standard IC.

On "MY" car, with my set up, temps dropped by circa 20 deg'C on full boost (1.4bar).

However, the MRT TMIC is VERY expensive, IIRC, around £750, and for that money, I would go for a FMIC, which is FAR BETTER.

When I changed to a FM, I sold mine to Trout, who also had big improvements, but he's now changed to a MF too.

Mark - whats an MF?

Sorry forgot about you too! - I've decided you all have too much money to spend on making your cars go faster.

It should be illegal to tune it in any way, shape or form.

Take the easy option - buy an evo! - the intercooler is already in the right place

To be fair, I had the '97~'98 version, and I would expect this to be better than the earlier year.

I don't know of anyone with the >'96 version, so can't comment on it's performance.
