got the chargecooler mounted today - just need 1 more hose (ordered) then i can pipe it up :D i also need a pump and a rad - i'm going to fit a punto turbo rad as that fits neatly into my space infront of the rear axle :D

i did make some lovely brackets to mount it but the photos have turned out crap :| obviously its still on the bypass pipe but its in the final position here :D

Cracking work there as always, you have so much room under there with your van, :mrgreen:

Rear mounting the rad will give you more water capacity and help with cooling even more, you WILL notice the difference!

Got it written down at work mate, I'll pm you again in the morning.
You will need the high capacity one given your extra length pipe runs.

I'll pm the number in the morning mate, written down at work.
The larger capacity will help given your longer hose runs.
Mount the pump at the lowest point in the system as they don't self-prime.
