I am also looking at the hyperflow 100mm thick cooler which is also a stage 1. I am after peoples own experiences with the stage 1 coolers, actual results would be fantastic too.thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing that stopped me was the standard crossover, so upgraded to the plenum which meant an upgrade to the stage 2 cooler to fit the new pipework Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want your car to look standard you better get the black one. Also they say it's a direct replacement for the original cooler but I cut out about 15 mm of metal to get the hyperflow cooler to fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
