super4mo 0 Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 Hi again can anyone tell me if a front mounted intercooler will fit behind the v6 4motion bumper like the one for the golf 1.8 turbo IntercoolerCheersStuart Link to post Share on other sites
craggsy 91 Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 Does behind a R32 bumper Link to post Share on other sites
super4mo 0 Posted July 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 yeah i know but im holding out for a regula tuning bodykit and i think it would benefit from a fmc as soon as and to be honest i wana be a bit diffrent (ive not seen a golf with this kit on yet !

bungy 2 Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 Might take a bit of work as there doesn't seem to be much room behind there. Bumper is easy enough to take off for a quick look though. Link to post Share on other sites
super4mo 0 Posted July 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 just wonderd as the seem to be able to fit in the gti tdi which i would imagine would be the same space although i do have the supercharger ally pipes to consider hmm! Link to post Share on other sites
super4mo 0 Posted July 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 Would this be the same amount of space? Intercooler 2Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
bungy 2 Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 I'd like to think an intercooler will fit behind the standard bumper as that is my plan to keep it all stealthy. Link to post Share on other sites
super4mo 0 Posted July 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 from the linky it appears to be the same Link to post Share on other sites
bungy 2 Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 Make yourself up some boxes to try fit under your bumper of choice or cut out some polystyrene to the dimensions of the intercoolers to try before you buy. Link to post Share on other sites
xyber 1 Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 If you want stealth, you need one of thesehttp://www.chargecooler.co.uk/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=72 Link to post Share on other sites
super4mo 0 Posted July 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 have loads of polystyrene in the shed think i will give that a go if/when i get me car back lol Link to post Share on other sites
bungy 2 Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 The centre grill part of the bumper just pops out with 4 clips at the top. Took this off today to have a look and it does seem tight in there. Link to post Share on other sites
super4mo 0 Posted July 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 yeah it is but how do they get the 1.8 t fmic on the standard bumper ?? Link to post Share on other sites
bungy 2 Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Not sure but if I get the chance I'll have to have a closer look. One way or another I'm getting mine done and going all out to keep the standard bumper. Link to post Share on other sites
super4mo 0 Posted July 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 yeah for now i want the same till i can get the bodykit i want !!! and the 1.8t intercooler seem so much cheaper! than a forge one (£600), cat wait to drive it again been months lol Link to post Share on other sites
