Hey All
Just finished up intsalling the Alta Intercooler. Took about 2 1/2 hours. Pretty easy, with a little triming and patience its an easy job. Biggest issue I had was getting the hoses on all the way.

Here are some pictures

Off with the bumper


Old cooler


Old & New


These little plastic brackets need to be trimmed down to get the intercooler all the way flush to the radiator


I trimmed around the holes where the hoses come thru to get access to the clamps. They dont let you know about these in the instructions but you really need to relive the area to be able to get a good space to tighten up the clamps




Finally installed


All back together and a new M7 Carbon Fiber scoop to finish it off


Overall I don't feel much diffrence below or in the mid range but feel some more pull up top. For $423 its not a bad upgrade. Need to put it in the dyno to see what numbers I am getting.

 

very nice. the scoop looks siiick! need some more full car shots to see it all together!

 

nice....yea the intercooler is a good mod, and yea man was it a pain in the a$$ to get the boost tubes on properly

 

Thanks...going to try and get some new shots in the afternoon..will post when I get them.

 

Nice project, cf scoop looks brilliant on there too, I second the full car shots request now that it has the scoop

 

Merry Christmas guys....Going to take some shots today as long as the rain holds out.
