Hey guys I was just wondering after seeing the new FMIC by Alta if this would be useable for full turbo conversions on the R53? I know there is some moddification needed to the front bumper structures, but would this be a good fit in our bumper location? This would be great instead of buying a generic(not really generic, but HKS, Garrett, or others), since it is made for A Mini.

Here it is: http://www.altaminiperformance.com/p...ed-Intercooler

Thanks guys.
P.S. I hope that Tuls finds this thread.

 

bump.

 

It's cool. I spoke to Tuls, and he sent me the best link in the world. A dealer on ebay with "generic" intercoolers. Very cheap and work good enough for Tuls, so its plenty good enough for me.

 

So...give it up...what's the link?:impatient

 

yea whats the link?
id go nuts for a front mount intercooler for an r53

 

Are there any of them made for the R53, or only for the turbo MINI??

 

Ok, guys here it is. I did not mean to keep it from you, just got busy and thought you would ask Tuls if you wanted one, but hey its cool.

So, here you go
