Intercooler Modification ... Who Does This?

[Scooby_Steve]

Hi,

I've got a S2 GTST and i cant use the hybrid type cooler piping kits because i've got a washer bottle where i need to cut out the 3" hole.

I want to get my left end tank (if looking front on with the car) on my cooler modified and have a 90 degree looking bend coming right off the end tank to go behind the cooler so that i can connect other piping. Similiar to that of a Blitz cooler but have the pipe go behind not under the cooler.

Also, i dont want to buy another cooler so that's why i want it modded.

So who would be the best person, tradesman to go and see?? i have no idea if an exhaust place is better than an aluminuim fabricator etc? Opinions?

Thanks

Steve

If you are in Melbourne, have a chat with Rod @ Race Radiators in Dandenong.

Anywhere else, FIIK.

remove the wheel arch n cut a hole ..if u unscrew the washer bottle , u will c it doesnt interfer with the cooler pipes at all. u only have to relocate a small braket holding a few electrical things to anotehr screw 4 cm back..

Hi Guys,

thanks for your input so far....

have a look at the following pics (the first two is from the hybrid cooler installation manual (step 1 and 2) and the other is a pic of my car).

So...

are you saying my washer bottle can stay where it is without interfering with the piping?? cuz i know the S1 dont have the washer bottle there and i havent seen where S2 2 door's washer bottles are located.

Also, are S2 2 doors the same as that of a sedan.. cuz i got a sedan.

However, getting back on the original topic... would a radiator place would be the best option to get the cooler end tanks modified?

Dont go modding the tanks unless you really have to.

Washer bottle moving is cheaper

Hi,

Doesnt your piping hit gutters etc... my car isnt lowered and it still hits even with care.

Also, if i move the washer bottle, where would the best location be cause i dont believe it can move back. it would have to move to the other side of the car... unless i get a totally different bottle... any suggestions?
