Its about £1500, contacted pace about it. Surely a front mount is better? Got email from pace if you want it sending?

I wouldn't mind a copy of that e-mail if you don't mind posting, or pming it.

The charge cooler can utilise the same short piping and small volume af the oem top mount, but with the cooling of a front mount. Trouble is weight, and if there's not enough flow/water volume the whole system can heat up, particularly after a long spell on boost.

The Pace one really looks the buisness, with twin rads. But far more expensive than these methods.

If I was building one myself I'd go for twin water inlets (one either side) I think to try to get more cool water across maximum surface area

When I built my chargecooler I used a spraybar type feed to distribute the water equally across the core.

Are you getting even better cooling now with the top mount though, or is that just for weight saving?
