When I had my mk4 I fitted a wellycooler which had great gain and kept things nice and cool. just wondering if anyone has fitted one to a mk5??
-
Company nxt door to RTech in Hinkley makes these :happy2:
-
I had to Google what a wellycooler was. :ashamed:
Turns out that my autobahn88 kit could I suppose class as one.

I think the wellycooler is 300x600mm

Surprised you havent heard about it. just wondering if anyone has used one and how it compares to the THS & Forge

If you are on Facebook, join the "TFSI Tuning" page, you should get some advice on it there :happy2:

Thanks for tyhe heads up.
they are massive, i may consider getting a smaller one.
on my 1.8T i had to chop up the crash bar and the bumper would barely go back on lol
good gains though

The size that I fitted above meant I didn't have to chop the anything,

i have one fitted (to the crash bar).... i can't say if its any different to anything else as i still haven't got it all plumbed in. as was only fitted tail end of january and i want hard pipes not much of the crash bar had to be cut up.

How has a 100 quid cooler ended up at 450?

You can get the core for as cheap as £80... I guess he's just charging for his time to make it fit properly and then a bit more on top for good measure!

Spoke to Rich today at dynodays.
There is a lot of fab work involved and labor in all fairness.
It's definitely worth consideration.
Especially as it will increase the change pipe size to bigger then even uprated pipes. Bigger pipes=better flow. And Flow=Power
And the limits have not been reached, even on 600bhp cars.

Saw Niki's post on facebook - your fitting that to @james (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=3247) old GTI?

Yeh, it is James' Old car.
I was having a discussion with niki about the wellycooler and decided it was worth a shot.
Its also having a few other things fitted :evilgrin:
