PhatVR6 0 Posted January 15, 2005 I've been talking to Forge motorsport today. They have accepted my offer for me to design an intercooler to be a direct fit in a mk2 golf or corrado perfect for a G60 or 1.8T. The idea being that it'll be a factory quality fit, but be made to the highest standards by one of the best respected names in the industry. There will also be an option to add a Samco hose kit to this to which will fit straight on, no messing. Would anyone on here be interested in purchasing such an item? It's just that I'd probably have to give a minimum order of about 10 before they will entertain the idea of making them exclusively. It will be at least as big as a Golf Rallye intercooler, which are rare to find second hand, and fetch up to £500 a go even in used form. I can also offer a fitting service for this too.

funky 0 Posted January 15, 2005 me too depending on price funk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhatVR6 0 Posted January 15, 2005 Not sure yet, he can't really give me a price until I give him the design. A second hand rallye on is going to set you back anywhere between £300-£500.......IF you can find one. Wouldn't you much rather spend the money on one that's going to look better, be more efficient, and last longer? gotta be better than just chucking in one off a merc van or something.

carpoid 0 Posted January 15, 2005 I'd be interested, as long as its closer to £300 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob_B 0 Posted January 15, 2005 im interested but again it would depend on the price! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhatVR6 0 Posted January 15, 2005 http://www.forgemotorsport.co.uk You aren't going to get a quality item like this for £300 I wouldn't have thought. But, I will see, you never know. The more I order, the cheaper they will be. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted January 15, 2005 I'm interested, especially if its a good straight fit - Ie no angle-grinding / welding etc needed... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red=Fast 0 Posted January 15, 2005 also interested. shipping to the states included in price? =P keep us posted. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhatVR6 0 Posted January 15, 2005 aye, none of that malarky. No cutting or welding required. I want it to bolt to the rad like the factory G60 one does. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G60JAY 0 Posted January 16, 2005 Last time i checked with vw the rallye intercooler was 450 pounds brand new. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blue_Joe 0 Posted January 16, 2005 I'm after an intercooler as soon as posible made by Forge but not Golf Rallye/G60 style. I'm after one to the same dimensions and fitting as an Audi RS2. Could this fit in on here?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red=Fast 0 Posted January 17, 2005 let us know...i think we are all drooling over the idea of a FMIC that doesnt require any modifications to fit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
