We have the original "Forced" intercooler on our car, with the sharp bends off the intercooler. Doing a grand job at 320bhp and cooling very well. When the angled bends were mentioned to our mapper he did remark what a total crock of shit people give as advice. You will do well to slow down a charge of air with 1bar pressure behind it!! We purposely fitted one of these kit to our car as people slated them and we won't be changing it as it works a treat
