[Mk2] [Turbo] Aftermarket Intercooler XS Power SMIC Style

Post by pilotmike17 »

Hi,

The Turbo i bought came with an unfitted XS power type SMIC but does not have the pipes!

Does anyone know what the pipe dimensions would be so i can get some made up?

Thanks

Mike

Buy the berk technology one piece top pipe from gts chris, the xs power ones are a very poor fit, for the hot pipe to core use a selection of silicone 90 degree elbows and alloy pipe, from memory the core is 2.25" (double check this) so use that size pioe, and get a reducing elbow to match the hot (2" iirc, again, double check)

You will also want a shroud and fan, unless you already have one.

I don't, sorry, you'll need to mock up your core with silicone bends and measure up with a tape measure.
