Hi,
Just wondering what peoples thourghts are on this cooler?. http://www.gktech.com.au/products/?ID=57 Are all of the coolers from china basicly the same apart from size and type?. Ive heard that these coolers do a fairly good job and dont cause problems so was thinking i would save some money on the intercooler and spend more money on a turbo and fuel system. Any help would be great. Thanks |

as much as most intercooler builders hate to admit it, these coolers ACTUALLY work, and work very well.... it has caused a huge stir with places like ARE and PWR
ive heard a lot of good hp cars using them, i myself have one of the china bar and plates, works a treat.

Well thats good to hear for the money i dont think that you could go wrong. I think ill get one and give it a go.
I was thinking going the 75mm thick as im not aiming for big hp(yet) but would it be worth getting a 100mm so i dont have to upgrade down the track?. Will i have issues fitting a 100mm in the front of an xf?. Thanks guys your info has been helpfull. |

not sure how it will fit in an xf, but they are quite big coolers, they are big in the front of an eb, getting a diferent bumper to cover it
one thing i have learnt is buy big the first time to save buying twice

I'll have a look at my front end and see how much space i have avalible. I did a cardboard cutout of a 75mm thick cooler and theses heaps of room for that so i think ill look into the 100mm. I think they are only $100 more anyway.

These cheap intercoolers are thebest thing to hit the turbo world... I'm on to my 5th one in 2 years and none have leaked and all have done a great job in reducing inlet temps on all my cars
