Silver Scooby Sport 14 May 2008 08:41 PM

I like it silver myself..... nothing better than looking in the rear view mirror and seeing that appearing in the distance :thumb:

Schumacher 14 May 2008 08:48 PM

Si, we know you love the bling. ;)

Stop winging you :D

Been a busy boy tonight and plumbed in the cooler and fitted a new 70mm APS cold air intake.

Just a few relocations left to do, refit my ACT sensor and my Clifford siren needs a new home.
Need to make a black for the DV take off too.

Sorry for the crap phone pics but at least you can see my progress.

the APS stuff is lovely...looking good :D

Schumacher 14 May 2008 09:45 PM

Looks great.

Silver Scooby Sport 14 May 2008 10:03 PM

That's a great fit... massive differences when you buy top end coolers compared to other stuff about these days.

frayz 14 May 2008 10:05 PM

Honestly mate. Even by my standards... its beautifully made and very well engineered.

The only part that niggles me is the limited space between the air filter and the charge pipe mounted in the OSwing.

Other than that its absolutely stunning.

RICH S202 14 May 2008 10:18 PM

Dude, looking sweet. I'm thinking about a Process West FMIC and oil cooler for the future but i do like the APS stuff though. Oh and on another note, i drove the Ring at the weekend and it was possibly one of the coolest things i've done. You inspired me man, you're like my frickin idol bro :notworthy ha ha

All the best

frayz 14 May 2008 10:21 PM

Nice one Rich. Great to hear :thumb:

lovinmescoob 14 May 2008 10:43 PM

Frayz - Just read whole thread and best way I can put it is........Absolutely Foofing Awsome!!!!

Keep up the good work and how about a nice darkish red FMIC???

frayz 15 May 2008 05:59 AM

No mate, sorry. No red coolers on my car cheers :)

Red/gold intercooler = rice.

wrx9181 15 May 2008 10:02 AM

hi frayz love aps stuff ,quality looks great i like the fm dark colour but im sure aps do one this colour so if unsure look on their site mate the usa one, good look car is great once again mate

frayz 15 May 2008 10:02 AM

Indeedy, it will be either silver, black or gunmetal.

Making up a stainless boss to weld on to my cold pipe today. This will be tapped for my ACT sensor. :D

I also noticed a crack in one of my wheel arch liners so ive ordered 2 new ones, they will then be trimmed to fit around the boost pipes and end tanks.

Then relocate a few parts and wait to get my bumper back. A spot of mapping and it will be all gravy.


Actually quite excited now :)

My ACT sensor was tapped into my old cooler.. i needed to tap the cold side of my pipework.

So i made a stainless boss and tig welded it on to house the sensor. This in about 1" before the throttle body on the underside of the pipework, shame you wont see it really as i think it looks pretty sweet :D

Nice work Frayz, keep the front mount silver, black/gunmetal looks really nice, but will show the stonechips up really bad, whereas silver will still look ok

My 2p worth
