New intercooler done :)

Are they easy to fit, I was looking at the forge one but it said not recommended if you had only one strut that holds the boot up…??

Mine fitted with a single strut just…

A bit more dirty filthy carbon :slight_smile: , drilled a 70mm hole for the aeroduct and lined the edges of The hole with rubber strip. I’m chuffed how it looks .

Brilliant this was what I was going to do over the winter too. Did not know you buy the shroud from RLS
by the way who are RLS can’t find anything
appreciate a web address or phone no.
Nice job by the way

Really Light Stuff
My carbon scoops have arrived from them and the smaller pulley. The service was very good
Prepare to be stung by import duty
Paul, (Moomin) may have a spare 3 way carbon shroud???

the carbon bits looks very tasty…very clean setup indeed…

thanks 661 I’ve sent a message to moomin, fingers crossed

Now that you have blocked most of your engine cooling air you should check the surface temps of your intake manifold…You should have a spare Alt waiting on the shelf because you will be needing it. :whistle:

If removing just the mesh screen can lower temps 10-15*f think how much hotter things will be when warm weather returns ?

I don’t know why guys buy this junk from fools… :frowning:

Lol a bit harsh frank , bad day ?! The carbon side covers are short and won’t block any air coming in . I have wider side scoops so more air flow than standard.
Junk ?

I ended up using the carbon one , sorry mate !

How much weight did this ADD! :smiley:

There are some old threads [a few years back] here about guys doing just what you’ve done with predictable results… Higher engine temps and toasted alternators…

I don’t mean to be harsh but guys need to check to see what has been tried and tested by real Lotus racers and nut jobs before spending hard earned coin on a fools folly.

I hate to see BS being sold…

Frank knows his stuff, & speaks wisely…albeit in his own inimitable style :smiley:

I would say about the same as the standard setup with the lightweight tubes ,oh and all the fixings I replaced with sexy titanium ones. :slight_smile:

Mmmm , little monkeys !

You might be able to cool off an I/Phone with those fans but to cool off a constantly heated intercooled you are dreamin of fighting windmills…sorry dude but I would try for a full refund or an exchange for a cup holder… :smiley:

Nope not for the intercooler ! :slight_smile:

No worries moomin, thanks for the reply, think I might have a go at altering the stock shroud, as planned, already sourced all the bits from Merlin at Castle Combe, I’ll let you know how I get on

how many guesses do we get??
