Default Last of the GC8 Autobahn88 intercooler kits, grab one at £189 whilst stocks last!

We still have some of the group buy Autobahn88 intercooler kits left at the group buy price of £189. Grab one whilst you can, Autobahn have released a new kit for the Scoobys and theyre exactly double the price of these ones!

Theyre in stock and ready to go, we have surpassed the required numbers so theres no waiting, we will sned out immediately.

Give us a ring on 01274 683633 if you want one

You might be interested to know that Greddy use the exact same core in their M-Spec kits The end tanks are slightly different and they have car specific mounting tabs rather than brackets as with the Autobahn but the core itself is identical

They come with everything you need to fit.

Ill check on the air box.

We dont deal with Mikalor anymore, we had serious problems with UK supply so dont get involved now Im afraid :no:

You will need a reducer for the dumpvalve take-off and the airbox will have to go.

Would be better for the individual to source the reducer as the recirc/dumpvalve diameters vary from model to model....plus most people tend to run vent to atmosphere valves which could vary in size...

I have one of these cooler kits from the original groupbuy that bren setup....

Fitted really well,and at a bargain price.....







I did have the pipework powdercoated but this still only added £40 to the cost...

I believe you need to cut one pipe so you can change the orientation slightly. Youll need a silicon connector and two clamps to put it back together, I should have them in stock so will chuck them in.

Ill get some pics of the mod tommorrow if you like?

I went to get some pics btu theyre not really relevent as Andys done an intake mod so his throttle bodies in a different place to normal. All you need to do is cut one pipe down and rejoin with a silicon hose. I can chuck the hose and clamps in witht he kit free of charge if you ask for them

scouse2,

I dont know what connectors needed. This is why we have just bought an Impreza, I dont like selling goods and not knowing them inside out.
