Just abit of an update from last weekend with a few pics of the phase 1 rad being installed.
Hdi and aircon rad dropped off
Custom phase 1 fans, surprisingly the internals from the phase 3 fan fit into the housing of the 1, plugs nicley slotted into the oem position but the wires for the fans were slightly shorter so i had to run them on a more direct root with cable ties.
Unfortunatley funds have been tight just latley so thetes no fancy rad hosing atm, just cut and shunt using copper joins like this one.
The new phase 1 setup seems to have freed up alot of room in the front now and dont have to look at that ugly expansion bottle every time i open the bonnet.
Managed to win myself some 406 hdi fmic pipes so now starting to look at remaps and fmic setups, if im lucky i think i'll be able to have a slim line pull fan with the new found space hopefully meaning i wont have to chop the bumper about. Anyway my hks turbo timer arrived yestoday so shall be fitting that as soon as ive got a new volt meter :-)
