Cross country Intercooler fitted to my old GQ Patrol what a difference

Gday
just another upgrade to my GQ Patrol with a top mount Cross Country Intercooler
this video is how went about fitting the diy kit which took me about half the day with videoing.
I found it pretty straight forward and so far getting some good results but still need a tune my next mod is going to have to be a 11mm fuel pump and injectors but I get to that later.
If theres anything ive left out or tips that could help someone else please put it in the comments cheers.

Looks like a decent kit (apart from the scotch locks!😂). Refreshing to see someone on youtube using a grinder with the guard on too. I cringe everytime I watch a video and the person has no guard on their grinder.

[@downtheshedwithbyron]

Those scotch locks haha but every car ive stripped with a tow has them
Yeah it doesn't take long adjust a guard but it takes some time to grow a finger haha

Hi ya again, just letting you know Whyalla is having a Derby on the 15th of April, 1 Week after Murray Bridge World record attempt, it's open class so will include full size cars, and it's on your way back to WA, depending on your time frame of your trip over this way, and a week extra, and if your car is able to run another Derby, or just to watch. I can provide all the people etc numbers to contact if ya interested. Cheers, Duane.

[@downtheshedwithbyron]

[@demolitionman9307]

Good on Grandpa. That's a huge set Nads. I wish him the best.

[@donaldwills2135]

They drop temps and I find the power is nicer not so much more power but just nicer driving

[@downtheshedwithbyron]

Yeah mate its made a big difference

[@td42dirtygq]

Wow mint job I like 👍🍻 how is the egt now keen to know if it's worth top or front thanks

[@downtheshedwithbyron]

So on the same run home now i use to get 350 400 and engine temps 87 to 92 (up hill)
Now egt not even 300 engine temp about 82ish
But i still need a tune
I went top mount more for the room
Im not sure on the difference that a front mount makes
