G60 into mk1 guide
"As a starting point a Merc sprinter intercooler is safe bet. The full width of the car, not too deep and good size inlets. You can also buy the hosing in kit form to allow you to fit it"
I am almost done with this conversion, with regards to the intercooler as above need to sort this asap and get the car on the road.. Have a 16v radiator and the intercooler fit is tight, really looking to source this merc sprinter in..cooler and pipe kit.

Can you tell me how or what points you used when fixing in your sprinter intercooler?
ive bolt mine with T-clips at the bottom and now am the unlucky owner of a snapped lower intercooler bracket! Any suggestions?
thanks

You don't need to attach it to anything it's such a tight fit in there.

Yup that's plenty of room if your engine moves that far I'd be worried lol.
