Ideally, you want one very slightly smaller, and made of a thinner material, to help cool the air even better Thumbs Up

What's the changes you have been doing to get these to fit.

Mike showed me the intercooler on his on Friday and i really want one now, what's involved as my current cooler is rather clogged with mud so think a change is on the cards.

Rest well old friend, your work is done.

Mines a rs 500 too . If you look at the pics of the cooler in place
you will see the edges of the crashbar have been trimmed /reworked to gain
Enough clearence to get it in . As discomikey says the alternative would be a cooler
Of slightly reduced dimensions .which would make instalation easier Thumbs Up

I bought mine as a Buy Now for £114, inc delivery.

Sizes sounds about the same. Definately don't go any bigger Shocked

Does this just fit straight in?
What pipe work did anyone change or does it just connect straight up?

2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE Manual Bali BlueDiscovery 3

I had read about this elsewhere, also planning to head down this route, most of the cooling fins off mine are missing. Thoguht while I was at it I would change the hoses for silicone ones.

Any info on pipe size changes? i.e stock to the newer intercooler?

Is there a good reason why I can't find that size? Or am I just a bit thick.

The closest I can find is 76 to 51 Confused

I've just checked on their website and its not listed there either Shocked
perhaps it might be worth giving them a call Thumbs Up
