    Default Intercooler setup... $200. What do you think?

    Hey guys,

    So I am looking at going turbo soon.

    And I have sourced a full intercooler setup for $200
    Now it seems to have everything needed, intercooler, piping, silicone bits n pieces

    heres a picture:


    Is it worth it?
    What do you reckon?

    cheers, Lachlan

    Looks like you have to cut a hole in the guard to fit it?

    That video is useless he cut his reo and front radiator support. Theres nothing about getting it engineered.

    If you want to do it properly and you have a stock turbo setup get a GKtech kit
