Whoosh Intercooler Install

So I decided to finally pick up an intercooler as I wanted to squeeze a little more power out of my Fist, decided to stay on the budget side as I’m up in Canada and everything costs a decent amount more so I decided to go with whoosh intercooler. I’m very happy with it so far and am planning on picking up a down pipe very soon, shipping was also very fast.

Thanks for sharing. Only 2 pieces need to be trimmed.

The lower center plastic piece is usually left off but I really like how Dem0co trimmed it to fit. Very well done.

What downpipe are you running on your car Ron? I gotta say I'm jealous of the orange spice it's my favorite color the car comes in.

the shop car doesn't see much action - no time
everyone always likes something they don't have. I'd much prefer Ingot silver!

How long between placing your order and it shipping?

It was just over a week from ordering it to it arriving at my door but I’m up in Canada so I assume it would be faster if you lived in the states

same spots i had to trim, i also had to very minimally trim the back of the front bumper.
Nice video

Great video! It’s good to have actual diy at home installs to help folks with the real world installs.

Nice job. I just left off the center bracket and used zip ties to hold the plastic bracket that you trimmed. I dunno how people were able to leave the center bracket on w/o modding it.

I installed mine a couple nights ago and just left off the center tab.
i ended up cutting a lot more. the strap that goes up, i just cut them both. so now when I take the bumper off, the splash shield comes with it.
there were also bumps that were hitting the bottom of the IC that I cut off. the IC itself seem to not want to go all the way up, have another about half inch. I'm guessing the 2 mounting tabs is just a tad bit lower.

Somebody should 3d print and sell a replacement bracket in the shape of that cut.

Very helpful! Just got mine installed as a solo project... Much harder to re-align the bumper for sure!

Is there like a dead animal or body hidden behind your crashbar? That red paint looks like blood.....is it used to make it look mean?

You don't know about the required "intercooler install blood sacrifice"... It's where the extra boost come from.

I think they covered it in the install video 🤣

I paid it during my install lol. Not even sure how it happened. Got a blood blister on my right index finger.
