where do they get these invisible intercoolers from, they are superb you would never know it had a front mount lol

What i find strange is the pics show the front mount and then the top mount ,2 different cars????

I bet it's the same car and the fmic isn't even connected!!!!

Think he's having a giraffe, either that, or he has no idea what he's talking about...

Looking at that pics, you can see a front mount in the bumper, but no IC water spray there... then its got the Top mount too... but you cant see the bonnet to see if it even has it there...

Perhaps he meant that "there's a font mount inter-cooler purely for bragging rights, and that there is in fact no plumbing connecting it to anything"...

I like the way that he says "water spray button on dash (like mini nos)" Eh???? :angry:

Also states that it has Air con, and the dials are there for it in the dash, but, as far as I can see (it may be out of shot) there's only one radiator (Plus the "front mount IC" in the bumper) and I cant see the bit of the engine bay that the Aircon would sit... but Don't you have to remove the Aircon to fit a front-mount inter-cooler?

What an idiot... or maybe a genious and worked out how to plumb in 2 intercoolers, with no pipework.

Im off to dig out my old top mount and give it a shot. It might be just the boost i need for the weekend.

Reckon unless there's someone that knows very little about two intercoolers on a Subaru bidding you're in with a shout there :angry: . To be honest though just stick with what you have !! Noe, go have a wee drink for your birthday - just a wee one mind it is a school night !!

WTF is a twin manifold? Is it just me or are the wing mirrors different colours and he has all those upgrades and its only got 280 bhp :angry:

EDIT just read the ad properly and he does mention the mirrors .

What you do not know..tut tut .Obviously it is to go along with the twin intercoolers,The decreased charge temps increase the boost giving the need to expell the exhaust gasses quicker... :angry:

Ah i thought it had something to do with the auxiliary heating that it has :angry:

"Interior/Comfort Options: Air Conditioning, Auxiliary heating, Power-assisted Steering (PAS), Power Locks, Power Windows "

Paul ,you could be onto something here.Perhaps the secondary manifold pipes the heat throughout the car with micro bore or something alike???????

Could be the way forward ,might even constitute a government (green ) grant ,re-use of waste products :(
