New Short runner intake. I bought this one so i have better gas respons and more space for the turbo and IC piping. The turbo wont fit. The throttle body was in the way. And everything arround it would melt by the heat of the turbo also whith a turbo jacket.

The project beginning to get shape. I changed something like a other turbo GT3582 and a other SRI because the black one wont fit.

Here is a picture

The first test rides are done. The heatwrap is still smoking. Still keeping a eye out for leakage. So a few short rides before a take the car for long rides. But the car is very fast at the standard 1 bar boost.

I think everything is nice - except of the IC solution.
Hope to see some video of this wild Corrado when everything is straight :wink:

This was the only place to put a IC if u want the keep your AC. But from a distance its rather ok. I dont want any aftermarket bumper.

OFC !
Its much better to run that IC setup with the original bumper, than a hidde IC sulution with a Rieger (etc) bumper.
Totaly agreed

It look's good :)
You could also buy the golf intercooler from wagnertuning, then you wouldn't see a thing. How come you placed the cauge under the steering weel to left?

This is looking very good. What kind of numbers are you expecting to see when you dyno the car?
I agree about the IC solution. I'd rather have it partially visible before trading the original bumper off for some plastic aftermarket crap.
I love the look of the car, you've done some nice work there!

That's awesome. I guess with that amount of tourq you will have to change your tires often ;)
Do you have the stock diff or have you upgraded it?
I also have a turbo converted corrado, but i does not pack this amount of power. Yet ;)
