Issues That I Want Clarified

[soon2b33]

Yes the piping is very cheap quality on those intercooler kit specials.

In my series 1 the indicator/fog lights didnt fit back into their spots in the front bumper, (still need to buy some custom indicators), horn needed to be relocated (no big deal) and yes the bonnet did push down on the top cooler pipe, and hit the fan. None of the strong hose clamps provided fitted either, so they had to go with standard ones.

this was also claimed to be "Bolt on"

(i recomend buying the cheap intercooler for 175, and then pay someone else the 500 to make up the piping kit out of better materials, and provide a better fit.

Trimming the fan is simple, and as said above u can always go electric.
