Quality looks great, but is it really that much of an upgrade? How come you don't want to go FMIC?

 

I agree the quality does look good but I think I would just go for a larger FMIC instead of replacing the SM's. Plus a front mount just looks cool! Here's a pic of mine from a while back before I installed the caracter grill.

 

Just wondering if anyone has any before/after dyno results for any of these intercoolers.

I am about to upgrade my tt's intercoolers as this is the last bolt on step to take. Also if i could i would like to keep the stock apperence.

In the past i have had bad experiances with front mount kits not fitting or not being a complete kit what would you recommend for a diy guy.

By the way i saw tyrols intercooler at waterfest and these things are top notch am really temped to wait for there release

 

You wont see a real gain on a dyno, its the loss of power they prevent. Front mounts fit really well on our cars (see below) w/o any cutting. There will be a pipe set out shortly from a place i know....

760hp rated TR12 from Treadstone


Said pipe kit but was special made


prototype mockups

 

Am sorry i was looking for a complete kit not something i have to buy in peices.

Anyone have experiance with the apr or forged front mount

also any more info on the tyrol dual side mount??????

 

Its ment for you to get a core for your needs/budget, not on off the shelf one sizes fits some kit. Looking at $300-500 for a good-great setup vs $1k+ for an ok kit.

All the end user will need is to get the correct couplers for the core they choose, simple concept to fit the needs for a wider range of people from stock to 500+whp

 

i would buy a treadstone and fpp pipes long long before getting and over priced kit.
