Really good how to bud, looks much meaner with that airtec cooler fitted. Thanks for the effort taken to film this, will really help anyone intending to do this themselves.👍🏻
Hi mate, six point sockets are your friend when it comes to rusty bolts. They grip on the flats of the head and don't round them off. Thanks for the video, I am doing this job soon, great to see how it's done so I know straight away what's what. Awesome job.
This means a lot mate, thank you very much. I try my best to keep the videos as real as possible, and offer the best solution for the issues I might come across! Much appreciated mate
Got my intercooler fitted today mate. You took the mystery out of it, so I could just crack on and get it done. Big thanks. Funnily enough my drivers side standard intercooler mounting bolt was seized like yours. Strange. But....the old 6 point socket got it out easy enough. Yep, you can feel a noticeable extra bit of drive going up through the gears, ahem..... but my drive to work in the morning will be a good chance to test her out. I start work at 4am so the roads are all mine on the way in! Not a bad little job, took me about 2 hours, but I was poncing about doing some anti rust coating on the radiator bracket and stuff. Looks great with the Zunsport grille too. I'm still waiting for my number plate, so plod will have to excuse me for a day or 2. Next mod I'm doing is the RS vac pipe. Cheers mate, look forward to what your doing next on yours. You, George and 03ANO are my go-to's for info. Enjoying seeing those lovely ST's getting tricker.
I’m glad this helped you mate 🙏🏼🙏🏼 and too right mate! 😈 defo looks awesome with the zunsport grille. I really appreciate that mate, us 3 lads supplying the public with content 😎
Well thanks again for a very professional and interesting video Bay. It was a tense moment when that thingamy whatsit rounded off, but hey, with a special appearance in this week's video,of Blue in Crocks all was well in the end. Very good. I was particularly pleased to see you both together sharing expert skills. Being so close to sea will rust anything metal so you did very well to get that off. XX
Really appreciate the comment, I’m glad you enjoyed it. And glad you enjoyed seeing dad in his blue crocs 😂😂 I’m glad we managed to sort the bolt out too! Xx
I have the same car as you,its bog standard I couldn't do anything like that as I'm not mechanically minded, but I like to watch videos like this, keep them coming mate, well done 👍
Thanks very much mate really appreciate it! It is indeed a number plate!! I’ve made a video mate installing it, check it out:) it’s called “ installing maxton spoiler lip and custom plates”
I would highly recommend a full exhaust system, with either sports cat or decat. Also RS spark plugs. I’d also highly recommend the RS clutch kit if you haven’t already. It will slip else 👍🏼
I felt some low end power change, yet it requires a tune after install mate, less pressure when increasing the size of the intercooler. You need a tune to compensate for that loss of pressure
@@AutoBay I managed to pick up some new bolts as Airtec never delivered. Those 2 damn bolts just wouldn't come out. Had to refit the under tray in 50 mph wind and rain in the end. Then when raising my trolley jack to remove the axle stands a major fuck up happened. Trolly Jack slipped and went through the passenger floor! Garage charged me £222 to replace the intercooler........and then remove the passenger seat and carpet to re weld the floor in the end. Let's just say I have better days in my life mate.
@@AutoBay I managed to get new bolts for the new intercooler myself. As for fitting it, those 2 rusty bolts just became rounded off. Absolute carnage. Then whilst under the car the heavens opened up and i got soaked. Never been so wet. Eventually i gave up. Refitted the under tray and decided to take it to a local garage for them to deal with it. This was just the start of a friggin nightmare! I used my hydraulic jack on the drivers side to remove my axle stand. Finally going to the passenger side i went to do the same. With it peeing it down, getting soaked and distracted i failed to put my jack in the right place. It slipped and went through the passenger footwell floor. So the garage now had to fit my new intercooler and re-weld the floor. Seat and carpet had to be removed. This was not good. Cost me £222 for all the work to be done. Anyway all done now. Thank god.
Nice video, shows it's not as hard as people may think. Did this by myself a year ago and 2 pairs of hands would have been helpful but I just used a trolley jack to hold it while I put it on lol. Those Bolt removal kits with the spiral inside the sockets are a great investment for £25. I used a kit to removal a virtually circular rear calliper bolt when I did my brakes. When did you change the name btw?
Glad you enjoyed it mate! Too right mate, not as bad as many people think! Hahaha that’s creative mate I like your style 🤣 and defo need to get myself some of them! Will help me out in the future ik sure 👌🏼 check out my most recent vid I posted today mate, I explain the reasons for change 🙏🏼
Hi mate, ensure that all hoses are fitted correctly. Making sure there is no boost leaks, I’m not sure if a boost leak can throw an ESP light but it’s the only thing I could imagine it being. Unless it’s just coincidence, and the light is caused else where, but has come up at the same time as you installing the cooler 🤔
thats one muddy undertray aha you in the rally championships, honestly bud compared to your instructional videos im shit aha ima be asking you for tips for real!
Hahahaha that’s what cornish B roads do to your car mate !! 🤣 I wouldn’t say that mate!! You’ve done some full on big jobs, you’ve got the mechanical mind, that’s harder to learn than explaining it well on my opinion. But I really appreciate that from you bro honestly, hahaha you ask away mate!!
Really good how to bud, looks much meaner with that airtec cooler fitted.

Really appreciate that mate, I’m well happy with it! Was worth the effort 🔥 🙏🏼

Thanks for letting me know mate, really appreciate that. That will be my next purchase! I’m glad this was useful and I’m happy to help!
Great video. Highlighting all the problems that we might come across while doing a job like this, where as other you tubers would cut them bits out.
This means a lot mate, thank you very much. I try my best to keep the videos as real as possible, and offer the best solution for the issues I might come across! Much appreciated mate

David Wood I respect the honesty mate. However I think you can do it if you tried! I’ll keep them coming mate don’t worry!!
Mechanic in the making;)

Enjoy it mate 😎 much appreciated bro!!!
My guy doing bits 👀 great video lad
My man 🙏🏼 really appreciate it bro
When in doubt get the old man out 💪💪
Too right mate 😎
Did you ever upgrade the intercooler pipes since you filmed this ?
Good to see your splash tray is working 😉 haha
So true mate 😂😂😂 bloody filthy
hello bro, just wondering. to fit your plate on like that is it just double sided tape?
Good job fella 👍👍
Thank you mate 👌🏼
Hi bud fantastic video very informative, quick unrelated question,your number plate looks like a proper plate not a sticker . How did you mount it ?
Thanks very much mate really appreciate it! It is indeed a number plate!! I’ve made a video mate installing it, check it out:) it’s called “
installing maxton spoiler lip and custom plates”
Great video mate what was the price of this ad liking for stage 2 intercooler just now
I got this on discount mate, but I think there’s still a sale on there now. It’s £300 full price
For the stage 2 tune do u just need a bigger intercooler and induction kit
I would highly recommend a full exhaust system, with either sports cat or decat. Also RS spark plugs.
I’d also highly recommend the RS clutch kit if you haven’t already. It will slip else 👍🏼
hi, is this also good for volvo V50 20D?
another top video.....thanks man!!!!
Thanks again Deon, I hope this helps!
加大中冷器是要經過計算的！否則會有渦輪遲滯的問題！
Did you feel an increase in mid and top end mate??
I felt some low end power change, yet it requires a tune after install mate, less pressure when increasing the size of the intercooler. You need a tune to compensate for that loss of pressure
Off the top of your head, did the Intercooler come with metal bolts to mount the L shaped brackets?
Yes mate it did
@@AutoBay ah. Mine didn't 🙁 Didn't get to fitting it just yet though. At the stage like you got to. Rusted rounded bolt!
That’s strange mate! Have you contacted them? That should’ve been included! What a bastard that bolt is mate! Have you managed to fit it?

Nice video mate
Thank you mate 🙏🏼
Where u get the airtec mount from is it torque mount or lower engine mount?
I got the stage3 one with the bigger boost pipes not fitted it yet tho
the torque mount, the one I showed in the video, I got on eBay mate for about £70
That’s going to be a beast mate 👌🏼👌🏼
