Mate if your only paying $100... grab it! If your on a budget... try also get hold of a second hand flash tuner and injectors and get a custom tune. You wont be disappointed!

exactly what I did. 2nd hand cooler, injectors, flash tuner and exhaust.

but I'm now at the stage where I need a better cooler and have a plazmaman one in the cupboard

Guys, I just have a quick question. When getting a larger intercooler, wouldn't it stop the air from getting to the radiator? Have people noticed the car temps going up with an intercooler that is blocking most of the radiator?

I haven't noticed any increase in operating temp at all since fitting the HDi cooler. The Radiator receives most of it's air from the upper grill section. You also need to remember that air is designed to go through an intercooler not block it, otherwise they would be useless, very minor restriction in airflow IMO.

To add to that, with a smaller intercooler you are gonna be pumping extremely hot air directly into the engine which is also gonna raise engine temps ... and in a more more dangerous way.
