That looks like it's come off some truck.

Enjoy it when it's fitted, it should be mega.

Thanks guys, if all goes to plan, the car will be getting built sometime next week.

In the mean time ive bought a bigger intercooler. This is the forge race version, so bigger than their sport, and this time in black to go with the stealth look. Forge say they gained 50hp from these new intercooler over their sport version on the TTShops hybrid ttrs.

A friend of mine also on a hybrid turbo tuned by gained 40hp from fitting this intercooler and new mapping, so it only made sense for me to upgrade, and possibly I wont need to run WMI now

Heres the findings of my mate Alex on his car.

Results in from new Forge race intercooler on my TTRS

Got back yesterday after a long day at MRC, as some of you know I was having trouble with intake temps.

Starting both runs with a soild intake temp of 10C we saw that the stock cooler was going +65c so upto max 75c. With the forge race we were seeing the intake rise + 10c to + 15c so max 30c.

Very happy with it, nice piece of kit, well made.

Blue = stock cooler
Black = Forge race

Very nice I was shown some of the turbo and manifold parts at APR earlier in the week and they look to be very nice, well made bits of kit.

Dear Helix, I have waited patiently for a year for you guys to develop this clutch. Now that it is finally ready, I have placed my order, but again the promised 2-4 days for delivery has long gone by. Please hurry, I just want my car back now  :sad1:
