Hi from Luxembourg

As I'm interested in an Allisport Fast Road Intercooler I thought asking here if in meantime there is an interest in a Group Buy for these I could join? Whistle

Regards

I suspect there will not be enough interest to get 5 people, to run this GB...

Mainly because a larger intercooler can be purchased for little over £120

JUST enough room. Quite literally a few mm either side to spare Shocked

Quality seems to be good. It feels more substantial than the OEM, and Allisport one.
The core itself is larger again than the A/S cooler.

As for quality, this was an Allisport cooler, I fitted to an RRS after 3 weeks...

I am also going through this at the moment - here's mine as part of the trial fit:

It's tough but you need to get the right one - some are marginally too big! Mounting high in the "off-road" position is even tighter/harder (note the Off-road Allisport is smaller than the fast-road version).

Need to fabricate a mount and also need two short extension pipes and two reducers to allow it to fit in front Thumbs Up

I plan to gets couple of plates TIG welded onto the rear of the IC so it can mount like the Allisport onto the bumper mounts Whistle

The box/ tray on the Allisport IC is not needed as the rad is supported on its own mounts onto the chassis legs Mr. Green

A RS500 one I have had for a while, I am going for a rear shroud to ensure the airflow is maintained into the bottom of the fan cowl, brackets will be on to the cross members for me - I have something else going on to the chassis rails....
IC is away being TIG welded (hopefully) and connectors and reducers all on order as well.
