SimonB Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 I've seen this asked on other threads a couple of times with no answer, but has anyone thought of / managed to use 2 SMICs, one in the stock location and the other on the passenger side ? There doesn't seem to be much down there. Possible, or not ? Just curious really, it'd be good to have more intercooling while still looking stock and not having to block the rad etc with a FMIC. If someone could do a kit it'd probably be cheaper than a FMIC too, and easier ? Chris ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 The pipework would be too complicated and would require extensive modification I would expect. Much better to fit an oil cooler in the passenger side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cashpoint Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 most of the passanger side has the windscreen washer bottle in it there isn't anything like the amount of room needed to fit a second SMIC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 I am not 100% certain but I think this was discussed before and the conclusion was; its a non starter:( for the reasons stated by Thorin and Cashpoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Need4Speed Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 I started a thread in January on this. Search on "Twin Intercoolers" and you'll find it. I didn't pursue it as I don't have any plans to up the power at present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick_Devlin Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 Originally posted by cashpoint most of the passanger side has the windscreen washer bottle in it there isn't anything like the amount of room needed to fit a second SMIC Thats right, not alot of room there. You can see in the attached how much room is taken up by the washer bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonB Posted September 24, 2003 Author Share Posted September 24, 2003 Yeah, but surely you could move that somewhere, or just put a smaller one on. Who needs to see where they're going anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darrell Payne Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 You could always weld three stock IC's together ,details http://mkiv.supras.org.nz/articles/kevinter.htm Daz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
