I need a pic of Corsa Turbo's with intercoolers poking out the front.
Preferably with GSi bumper - "modded" bumpers are ok - but pictures with snow plough front bumpers are no use to me what so ever.
Thanks for any help

could you relocate an intercooler and have ducts that carry air to it?

not really, you can have it at an angle slightly,
my idea is to have the plate at an angle pointing upwards so air can go underneath the plate into the intercooler, radiator

You see the Calibra was made to take an FMIC - V-tuning did a great job of fitting mine to my Cally Turbo

Hum like that...........
Jake could you make the number plate smaller and make the gap a bit bigger.
Im going to have to loose the front fogs anyway to make room for the inlet pipe

Teddy cut the plate surround out, mesh that black along with the bottom grill,
then get a small bike plate and mount that in front of the mesh,

No because i want to keep my number plate where it is like timrud's.
I still want the thing to look like a corsa but want maximum airflow.
