Title: Airtec intercooler - Group Buy
Post by: keano on January 28, 2013, 01:00:49 pm
Listen up ladies!

I've been in talks this week with Airtec.

Alan is willing to do a fantastic group but for the front mount twin spec intercoolers. They are essentially the same as the £650 Forge twintercooler set up.

The usual retail price is £450 + postage.

In this case the full unit including postage is £389!

Get some names down if your interested. The more we get. The cheaper they are:

Cheers

I don't sorry mate, because its black the camera won't pic it up against the black grill.
If you look you know it there's but obviously doesn't stand out as much as a silver one would!

IMO yes... you ideally want to keep the volume of the intake system as low as possible, otherwise you might experience more lag.

Just found a picture of this kit in our for sale section. thought another pic might help your thread.
As you can see if it doesn't end up cooling to well, you can always use it as a shadow.  :evilgrin:

Going to have to pull out of this now sorry buying new wheels instead

Post by: kiddfrost on February 02, 2013, 09:56:04 pm
I bought one of these cores from Alan a few months ago and it works very well coupled with the S3 intercooler.

If you want to use it with the S3 cooler forget the pipes that come with it. You will need to buy the Forge S3 twintercooler pipes unless Alan has started making the s3 pipework.
