Howdy, currently fitting an intercooler to the RA28. Just wondering if anyone has some recommendations around the Sydney area of where I can buy some mandrel bends, maybe a donut.
The rubber joiners and straight stainless pipe?
Thanks very much.
Joel

What intercooler are you fitting Joel? I'm looking around at options for my RA28 (3t-gt) at the moment. Are you going for a crossflow style (inlet and outlet on opposite sides)?

Howdy, I'm fitting a custom made job. core size is 400x300x75. Total size including tanks is 556x300x75.
Pipe on each side. I will be getting a custom inlet manifold for the 3t-gte so the pipe can run straight down into the IC and not across the engine.

G'day Joel,
Did you get your cooler from a guy in Newy?
I'm looking at one for my 28...
What is it like?
Cheers

so do you have to cut to fit it in?
Do you have a cooler at the moment?
I have been too lazy to measure if it will fit, but you must have before you bought it....
Do you have a thermo in front of your radiator?
I currently have a 1ggte supra cooler, but i think these would be heaps better.... mine just fits though...
