Default Sneak peak of my new coolers!

I am awaiting more pics and information and will post as soon as possible.





Also they should be ready next week but will not get round to testing them till the new year.

They will have the factory connections so will be completely plug and play.

Joint effort between me and people I chose to do the job I guess!

Wow.. I'm not intercooler expert but the fabrication and welding looks superb. What was your cost to have these made? What was the expertise of the peole you chose to make them? Are they in the turbocharging business? How much more capacity do they have then the OEM?

Thanks !

They are the best cores you can get.

They have more fin density not more capacity.

The people I used are the best in the business when it comes heat deflection, so they are in the heat deflection business and also have experience in motorsport.

They cost me alot but I had to pay for the drawings.

I also gave them a set of new stock cores to copy sizes.

Thanks for the clarification. Like I said I'm certainly not an IC expert...

Did you do this because you weren't happy with what the aftermarket had to offer?

Your welcome.

Exactly what is on the current market does not work on the road.


It's proven the gt2rs/997.2tt coolers are better than most!

This another level.
