stucat87 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Looking for a decent front mount. 98 spec bumper, want something that fills the hole well. But is good for still havin air com and crash bar. Lookin at the hdi with the short route piping, not sure where to get these tho and wanted to make sure I got the best I can. Lookin to run in 300bhp range so something capable. Td04 possibly. Any advice would be good? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 (edited) if you want to get the 300bhp mark you will need to get rid of the ac bud takes up a fair amount of room. Toyo one works fine i run one and my mate has one on his fully forged ep82 pushing 298bhp don't have a crash bar though Edited July 2, 2013 by akyakapotter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stucat87 Posted July 3, 2013 Author Share Posted July 3, 2013 I have thought about removing ac buy I'm not really aware of many around that still have so thought it could e good to keep for selling purposes later Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stucat87 Posted July 7, 2013 Author Share Posted July 7, 2013 Wel I have been looking into japspeed hdi version so with short piping. There is some from d2 on eBay. Not sure of which way the cars going yet tho. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stucat87 Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 Looking at hdi x0r-1 wats everyone's thought. Also lookin for boost controller. Got a greedy emanage ultimate. Do I need extra look and 3 bar map sensor? And which boost controller would everyone recommend? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jim* Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Hi mate I have the HDI cooler, you can keep your crash bar in there it fits up snug to it, but it is a very thick core so trimming the bumper will probably have to be done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Arnold Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 WEPR Kept the crash bar and A/C. Only removed that when I went TD04 and routed the air intake to the front. Still have the same FMIC and crash bar still on (You don't want to take it off, trust me on that one!) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stucat87 Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 Cheer guys, I don't mind trimming bumper if it has to be done, pretty much knew it would. I am thinking of goin tdo4 so it's an upgrade for future also. The one thing I was thinkin was do u had to remove AC if u go td04. Think I've decided on the hdi Intercooler. And cheers socks for that, I have been readin over it. Just wanted to double check a few bits for safety purposes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stucat87 Posted July 21, 2013 Author Share Posted July 21, 2013 Aright so u think this Intercooler will be okay, http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?itemId=230718281955&index=6&nav=WATCHING&nid=80685197331. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JayJ Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Whitestar has stock setup friendly fmic and not much bumper trimming needed, look at his build thread. :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stucat87 Posted July 21, 2013 Author Share Posted July 21, 2013 Yeah his setup looks good. Shame it's like 4 times the price Quote Link to post Share on other sites
