What I want to know is what have people used for the hotside on nizpro cooler? If I get this it has to be the big big cooler. What puts me off the nizpro hotside pipe that they sell is it won't join straight up to a GTX which I'd like to upgrade to when my turbo finally gives up. I have a rapid systems hot side pipe kit that I'd like to use but they said it doesn't fit well with the nizpro coolers so it will need mods to work. Either this or an adaptor to join std pipe to intercooler inlet. Or get nizpro hotside and adapt to a GTX when the time comes. So the question is, what did you's do?

It's very easy if you have access to a tig and a short 2.5" 45deg bend.

Do you reckon I'll have any dramas doing it this way? I don't know how to tig so will have to make friends with a boily or boat builder before I upgrade to GTX Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/26437-what-ic-to-buy/page/33/#findComment-1361902 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the long wait for Easter till I get to Perth. Got a nizzy exhaust and cooler to go on and getting waste gate done. Definitely not putting it off this time.

Not this time for me. Got exactly what I wanted and no reason to not fit them. As long as ore prices are good the money will keep coming in. Keeps me happy with the car too. Costs too much to change cars. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/26437-what-ic-to-buy/page/33/#findComment-1362128 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a very tight fit getting it on but it'll go with a bit of soapy lube Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/26437-what-ic-to-buy/page/33/#findComment-1373582 Share on other sites More sharing options...
