Thats a nice looking 5. :agree:

To be honest i can't see the point of 2, thats a full GT Tuning set-up from moons ago. I know his replacement 'breadbin' intercooler was ok (best of all replacement intercoolers) but if you still need it in place with the front mount how good is the front mount on its own? :crap:

no, it could be double the cost............buts its triple..


that bread bin was 400 quid new, the front mounts gotta be 600 odd with all the gear, and what about the water spray system..

thats easily a grand sat there from gttuning:eek:

I've seen that car at santa pod, it had C02 sprayed on the front mount aswell, **** knows why it needed so much charge cooling, the turbo it had then was smaller than what I have now and I make do with just 1 front mount
