Default Got a bargin!!!

Well I think it is.

I've just bought a new APS DR725 Intercooler core and support bar for £250 inc shipping to the UK.

It was only used for bench flow testing.

I think even if i had the pipes made it would be alot cheaper than buying the full kit.

It hasnt arrived yet mate.

Here is a link to it on the APS site though.

APS D/R 725 Front Mount Intercooler System

I've wanted one for ages but they are quite expensive.

I fitted my FMIC in an afternoon (Friday), and then took all weekend to slice my flesh and bleed everywhere, SORRY to cut, file and sand my bumper to fit nice and snug.

LOL

I think you could trim the bumper too much and mess it up.

The downside to buying just the core an not the whole kit means that the templates that are usually supplied are not there. They would give some idea of how much to cut.

I'm pretty sure the instructions are available online from APS, but maybe not the templates?

If not, then where in Hampshire are you? I've got a brand new (and complete ) DR725 in the shed waiting to be fitted, also bought from the US (£1100 delivered including customs etc ) so if you want to take a look at and/or make a copy of the templates you'd be welcome

Thats a good price mate for a complete kit.

If I'm right you have a 2005 model but mine is a 2001 model, was a nice offer though. I'm in Aldershot by the way, are you in hants?

You're right, mine's an '05 so the template's no good for you

I'm in the New Forest, near Christchurch, work in Andover.
