The problem with bursting issues on the 07MY Defenders was a problem in the manafacturing process of the core to the end tank, it was not a direct Allisport problem and the problem was recified as soon as it was noticed.
As with all manfacturing companys that produce a vast ammount of product there will always be errors no matter how hard you try, afterall we are all human.

so why didn't the OEM intercoolers suffer the same issue? seems to me you're defending the indefensible?
There's a lot of aftermarket suppliers stuck in the past, for example, many assume that the same aux. battery setup can be migrated to >07MY Deafeners, not the case....

I'm only giving the reason it happens to the forum members for a fare comparison.
I personaly don't care if they split I would not fit a bigger cooler to a puma the STD one is fine for most applications of light use that my customers mostly do.
But that's my opinion.

Nice to hear, and keeping ON TOPIC. We were informed today of a members D3 being loaned, and thought it was you.
The 5 D3's that attended the photoshoot today are offered this by ALLISPORT associated with the journelist, and the proviso that its a test bed and documented. Glynne will get the details this week. No costs as of yet but were given the impression costings COULD be favourable
Keep us informed Steve, am definately up for an improovement on location of the intercooler, let alone the performance enhancement.
I await the outcome of todays meet before I commit if thats okay

Sorry Jason, but the way I understood it was, the jounalist was talking to Allisport about something else and mentioned he was meeting a group with D3's and Allisport mentioned to the journalist that he had an intercooler in developement and could be interested in a few people assisting in developement. I wouldn't say the journalist was 'associated' with Allisport.
Plus any costs that were discussed today were just 'maybes' and didn't come from Allisport. The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us yet.
