greggtr Member 8 Member For: 16y 10m 23d Posted 25/08/08 10:52 AM Share Posted 25/08/08 10:52 AM Hey guys,I have a left over HKS 300mm x 600mm x 76mm cooler (2.5" in and out on opposit sides)from another project (not cheap crap) is there enough room for it in a XR6 Turbo Mk1? As it should be cheaper to get pipes made up rather than buying a full new kit....thankG.
