Hello everybody,
Had any1 fit an intercooler to veccy 2.0 T?

Will it improve the performance?

They have FMIC anyway, so dont see the point unless ur going for BIG gains?

Im thinking about removing the aircon rad to allow a better flow to the FMIC ;)

And so im not in need for this??

[Marcosuk]

I would say no if your just doing light mods.. Im sure its the same inter cooler as the vxr ??(correct me if im wrong)

[bedo13]

so the original intercooler for the Z20NET is satisfying fo small mods?

[Marcosuk]

Yeah mate... Other guys on here have good figures on standard inter cooler ;)

Standard intercooler was more than enough for my old 2.0T with BSR Stage 1 remap which recorded 233bhp on a rolling road. Airbox mod done, but otherwise totally standard.

How about keeping everything there but moving the intercooler forward, that way you get the best of both worlds.

Can u swap the intercooler & aircon rad around?? Thats an idea.. Altho i dont use the aircon & it needs re-gassed :rolleyes:
