Intercooler trial and tribulations
Posted by

I first purchased this aftermarket (XS-Power) intercooler back in 2006. Was a good price when they came out, just £200, compared to the other options which basically consisted of a Greddy at circa £600, and some expensive chargecooler options.
The XS-Power intercooler is a copy of the Greddy, but it is slightly flawed when it comes to the intercooler pipes supplied. Well, not the pipes as such, more the clips, they blow off for a past time! They are crappy Mikalor copies, and the wrong size at that. So, after having the hose pop off twice on the M25, I bit the bullet and spent £50 on some proper Mikalor hose clips. I also at that time fitted the shroud and fan.
