i don't know the pressure rating for the merc intercooler, but if anyone does can you let it be known as I would like to know also. I'll be running 1.3bar through it. I haven't done the hoses and pipes yet, i only fitted mine last weekend. (mines = 151.jpg) The specs are 970mm width, 300mm Height, 50mm Depth with 38mm core depth. The only down point is that is has plastic ends to it, but I've been told upto 1.3 bar of boost they are ok. I may get some aluminum ones welded on at a later date. To fit it to a C, you need to do a bit of cutting here and there, depends how you mounts it. I mounted it in front on my VR6 rad, the rad I moved back a bit to make room. the headlight + grill panel I cut away quite alot. have a look at this thread as well - http://corrado.atx-hosting.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=4985 hope this helps. More pics of mine.......

from a merc van dealer, got it for £145 brand new. Does need a bit of cutting to make it fit, but for the price you can't complain! Pipe work doesn't look too bad at all.

JR Ewing I live near Fakenham (Kings Lynn side), I'm about 40-50mins from Norwich city center. I'm home this weekend if you want to come and have a banter at the car, not a problem. Let me know. Von... I'm hoping to have it road worthy by the summer, not everything will be finished but I don't care, just want to get it on the road. And I will let you guys know when I update the site again.

Can you get carpets new?? If so anyone been brave enough to get a price??

J, Paul said you guys had got some nice Porsche seats, didn't realise they were that nice!! I'm pondering.... :?

Should be able to pick the whole lot up for £500-£600 now, I paid a little more, but that was a year or so ago. Ben

Did JD run 18 RC's on that blue corrado?

Very nice VR6.. Fancy selling me your front drivers side wing?? :D

I rekon it could be a little loud - what do you think??? :lol:

http://www.schimmelperformance.com/ Thats where it was grown. Bill Schimmel is a top corrado head, he had that 500bhp front wheel drive VR turbo a while ago.

Fitted it this weekend!! but now my right headlight won't fit - DOHH

Is it possible to remove the windscreen on a corrado without breaking it??

My golf is starting to get slow and noisy, its only an N-reg, but I might try fitting one of those bigger audi units..cheers.

I'm 21 going to be 22 when I get the beast on the road.. Just imagine the insurance quotes, they are going to love me...not!

I bought some of Venoms springs for my golf as the standard setup was live driving a bus! It was quite hard to begin with and they improved the handling no end, but they feel like they have soften up a bit now (2 years use), or I've got used to them! On my corrado I want to have a reasonbly stiff setup, so I don't think it matters which coilovers I go for, they all sound good~!
