So on monday I will go buy bolts and washers for the plasic pan then next service I will go back to the metal one with a new filter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbowelshy89 Member 147 Member For: 14y 6m 23d Posted 18/08/12 11:34 AM Share Posted 18/08/12 11:34 AM Nice but y didn't you stick the trans cooler between the intercooler and radiator? Not as much room on fgs, As the trans cooler will effect flow for the intercooler, not saying it won't be vice versa but personally I have set mine up between the 2, and I think it will have adverse effect on the intercoolercompared to running it between the 2.

But if you have a bigger intercooler which most do, the brackets they provide are good for nothing and you have to make your own which wasn't too hard.

Since im using the most expencive sh*t on the market I thought I better make something to minimise spills. I made this up and spilt next to none doing my fg this time round. Drum pump with clear hose and a little ball valve and a 18x1.5mm (I Think?) to screw into the fill hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
