Re: my first renault 5 gt turbo project
I have just been doin the pipe run on my new forge front mount intercooler and i am really disapointed the pipe run is rubbish some of the 90 degree bends you have to cut approximatly 3/4" of and thats the words the instructions use i wanted a proper kit as i thought it would fit nice and look good it doesnt at all i am really angry it cost alot of money. Some of the homemade kits look amazeing on here and a large companey like forge cant manage the same :mad:

Scccceeeeerreeewwwwiiiinnnn!!!
Is there no way u can make an alloy and silicone pipe work mate? What kinda pressures u run the car on by the way?
Looks like u done a good job mounting it.
Better than u mount most things anyway from what I've heard

Re: my first renault 5 gt turbo project
cant go wrong mounting a forge cooler, all the holes are there already. just as said the pipe run is a pain. stick with it tho chris:agree: be worth it :D if i was gona run a front mount again i would like something like marks ginger five`s cooler. look mint :agree: i wanted my one hiden under the bumper so went universal in the end with ash hoses.

Re: my first renault 5 gt turbo project
I always expected forge to be good quality products. Likewise, I'd expect an off the shelf 'kit' to fit without modification other than to the crossmember.
Let us know what forges response is Chris.
