Don't try to nail it down too much. The engine will move and the pipes will expand a little on a decent amount of boost. Allow it to move a little without flopping about. Mount the intercooler to something then work back.

Yeah looking at how to mount the intercooler also.. I was even toying with the ideas of jubilee clips at various locations on the pipework fixed somewhere? Cant imagine that though looking decent... |

Your intercooler has the tabs on the bottom.. can u not weld up some round bar for it to sit in On 24th Oct, 2015 jonny f said:

You could if the intercooler sits in the right place fix straps/brackets to the head studs. That way the intercooler moves with the engine, reducing the chance of boost hoses moving or coming off. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

Never mounted the pipes always the intercooler. As tom says start there and work your way back. 1/4 Mile 14.3secs 96Mph Terminal 10psi of boost.

Ok chaps thanks.. all good ideas. I'll somehow get the intercooler fixed in place then take it from there. |
