Then replaced the stock intercooler hoses for some uprated forge ones. Another great forge product!
I will take this time to show you guys what we then did to my friends TTRS roadster! Hes stage 2 with a full milltek race exhaust, but we ditched the milltek race backbox for a custom single exit "race can". Basically think of a silencer about the size of one fitted to a race bike! It is loud!
We came across a THS intercooler for free, and we were wondering what we could do with it. So, we decided to cram it behind the roadsters engine bay somehow!
And so this is what we came up with. Removed the air conditioning rad, attempted to remove the A/C pump aswell, but thats required due to the way the belts run on the engine. For it to fit we also had to cut the crash bar.
Then we painted the intercooler black for the stealth look.
End results via logging shows that temps are even cooler than my forge, and will peak at a certain temp and not increase anymore, but if you ask me whether its worth massacaring your TTRS for the small gain over the forge unit, I would say no. Therefore the coupe wont be going this route, and it did highlight actually how well the forge unit is actually designed, as the temps differences werent that big!
