The overwhelming opinion seems to be Monzas and ebay equivalents are a waste of $ F6 isn't much of an upgrade. Who makes a good cooler I can use with stock piping? I want to keep the engine bay looking stock and I'm not chasing big numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see but I think I can do better for that money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent less than that on the cooler but spent more than that on the rest of the intake tract. All up was a tad over $1700 from air filter to tb. All that's left is to buy a better quality cooler one day. A "cheap" cooler setup like I've done isn't necessarily crap but it won't be a bolt in affair and the piping won't be standard either. I personally wouldn't do less than what I've done but each to his own. Edited 28/04/17 08:41 AM by Puffwagon It cost more than I first thought.

It's top of the list at the moment because there aren't many direct replacement options. I could go for a complete kit including piping but my plan is to keep the mods on this car to a minimum. That means keep the spending sensible too. I've spent far too much money on cars over the years and know that if I dont set a limit the whole thing spirals out of control. Im also aware that if I'm going to do it, I'll do it properly. It's my daily, so focus is reliability. I'm looking for 300kw max. planned mods are cooler f6 lower intake Cat pump & injectors. Xcal 4 & Tune. So I could spend big on a cooler and piping, but do I really need to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll just be a bit poxy in summer. I think you're cutting out a lot of options by wanting the piping route to stay stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you hardly get to flog it then just do injectors, pump and tune and save the rest for cocaine and hookers. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
