Looking at possibly brigthening up the engine with some Zerosports goodies such as the
1:Air intake pipe
2:Intercooler Air Duct hose
3:Cool Radiator (slam panel) had one on my old car but didn't know if it made any differance
4:Cool Action II

Do any of these ctually make any differance (i.e. does the cooling bits actually work)

All can be found on here DH Cars

I'd be interested to hear of experiences of antone who has fitted the intercooler thingy (Cool action II) Unless you have a charge temp. gauge (I have) it's almost impossible to measure any benefit?
You would be totally bonkers to pay £35 for the intercooler duct hose. Just go to Viper performance site and buy a length of silicon tube and make 3 or 4 of them for half that money!

I dont think the slam panel makes any difference to cooling, but it looks nice

I put the cool radiator and 1.3bar radiator cap on mine. The water temp gauge used to be dead level once warm, now it falls short of level by a few degrees of angle and stays there, so definitely making a difference. Mind, I'd never got it to overheat before anyway, so not sure the difference is meaningful or beneficial
