Plazmaman Intercooler Kit Install

[bluprinturbo]

if youve still got standard intake make sure you remove the airbox so you can pull the a/c line across while your bending up the line next to the cooler. youll see what I mean, if you try to just bend the line near the condensor up you,ll probably kink it too much.

Yes I have the Aircond pipe out of the way, but the fitting that attaches

to the condensor is the problem.

It is a solid block of alloy on the end of the pipe that connects to the condensor

which has another solid block protruding from it.

Only way I can see to move it would be to have a Aircond Shop cut and weld a pipe coming off

it away from the IC.

I will try to explain it as best I can by word.

Start with the condensor, on the left hand side of the car it has a block of alloy protruding

from the cooler which is the opposite outlet/inlet to the pipe that can be bent out of the way.

This block is black in colour, It then has another block that attaches to it with a raw alloy pipe.

it protrudes from the left side of the block and has a green paint mark on it.

On looking down at it if I was to trim the lip off the bumper support it may allow the cooler

to come forward enough to clear it. Looks like it needs to move to the front approx 15mm.

maybe the end tanks with my HDI Cooler are wider than the plazmaman tanks, this being

my problem in fit.

Also the tanks on the HDI IC come straight out which ment I had to remove the excess

metal from the chassis rails to the first spot weld for the silicone pipes to clear.

From looking at the pictures of the plazmaman IC it looks as if it angles down past these

protruding chassis rail excess bits.

probably should have just saved for the plazmaman cooler, as it sounds like it fits easier.

Anyway The price differance is huge and a friend who has gone the Plazmaman cooler kit

on a very similiar car setup to mine ran slower than me last time out to the drags.

So the HDI Cooler must work well even though it is about 1/4 the price of the plazmaman

cooler not to mention I was also having fuelling problems.

may have to have a closer look at his setup next time to see how it all fitted up compared to

my setup.
