spacing intercooler ?
I have heard that you can put spacers/washers under the intercooler mounts to angle the intercooler to improve cooling. Is this true and how do you do it ? what size washers etc.

I have this installed on my car. I got them from a group buy along with an intercooler splitter.
For the tilt kit you need the spacers, and two new bolts (about 50 mm long). The spacers have different sizes. About 13 mm for the turbo side and 21 mm for the other side.
Cheers,
Paulo

I made some at work using nylon instead of aluminium.
