Out of interest, is it a custom built charge cooler and rad you are fitting, or are they from an existing vehicle?

Something I'd probably have a play with if there are potential economy gains for modest outlay.

My son and I have been playing in the other direction with a Glanza - massive intercooler and huge performance. They are a hoot. Amazing hooligan factor from a 1.3 engine. :)

Both rad, header tank and charge cooler are custom built but for other vehicles! The rad still needs adapting (hose relocation and a bit off the bottom corners) but the cooler, rad and inlet manifold bend were cut up by me and welded by a friend.

A Subaru legacy chargecooler looks like it might work ok under passenger seat.

Glanzas are fun, my brother's current one has LSD and fancy suspension, sticks to the road like glue. :D
