with the forge twincooler u can keep the standard cooler so your running both

I have just been scouring the fitting guides on the net and I have found this out, now that the cooler on the golf is in the middle of the radiator and a/c cooler isn't it!!

I think I may go for the option of just using a single front mount (the same as the vf-engineering one). That surely has to be better than the original set up where it is sandwiched between two other coolers? It will then be the furthest forward and at the lowest point on the car with nothing blocking the cold air...???

That is the set ups I have seen on al, turbo cars.. Is the golf not like that no?

For that front mount IC you will need new hoses as the present oem ones won't work, wrong shape and not long enough.

Thought I might, have got a mate who can sorte some piping out he has got left over from a new cooler he just bought for his car! Thank you for your help lads and not just telling me to buy a forge one lol ;-)

bacillus:
Did I forget to mention that you should buy a Forge twintercooler??   :laugh:
