Good size FMIC on RS bar

[AuSpecVr4]

Hey guys

What are some overall dimensions i should be looking for a inter cooler setup for my RS? still want to keep the condenser and fan on the front so there's not allot of room. Anyone got some build pics of there setup i can have a browse over?

Cheers, Brock

You can go as big as you want without modification to the bumper, really. I run a Spearco 2-216 on my car which is 28 x 10.5 x 3.5. That is as big as you can go due to fitment between the unibody "frame" rails and height without the core sticking out the bottom of the bumper cover. I run the factory pusher fan in front of the condenser as well.

Turbowop,

My intercooler setup is almost identical to urs. Same routing.

Thanks thats helpful, interesting where you routed the piping, i was going to use the battery tray but i guess i could cut where you have. Cheers anyone else want to show some of their work? yes ok, "Bumper"

that's one thing I couldn't figure out with you Australians when I got here.. why call a bumper (as it's known internationally) simply just a 'bar'? is it short for 'bumper bar'? It just makes me think of those ugly roo-bars you see on many of the cars here.

I could understand it for the older cars where the bumper really is more like a bar, but not these where the "bar" is behind the bumper cover /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif.
