Hi guys… thought i'd do a quick tut on a home-made intercooler… Materials (1-3 can be found at hobbyshops): 1. Strip Styrene No. 131, 8408 and 226 2. Sheet Styrene No. 4543 3. Silver paint marker 4. Double-sided tape 5. Glue Equipment: 1. Hobby knife 2. Ruler Alrighty… Items in place… Let’s begin! Step 1 Using the ruler, roughly measure out how big an intercooler to fit the air-intake vent, then using the Sheet Styrene No. 4543, cut out a piece. Step 2 Then using the Strip Styrene No. 131, cut pieces that will fit into the length of the Sheet Styrene done in Step 1, painting the strips silver. Step 3 Stick the strips in Step 2 onto the sheet in Step 1. Step 4 Then using the Strip Styrene No. 8408, cut pieces that will fit the border of the Sheet Styrene done in Step 1 (2 along the length, 2 along the breadth), painting them silver. Step 5 Using the Strip Styrene No. 226, cut 2 pieces out, and then bending each piece slightly. Paint it silver as well. These will form the coolant pipes. Step 6 Now stick the 4 pieces in Step 4 and the 2 pipes in Step 5 onto what you have in Step 3. Alrighty guys! The intercooler is basically done! Now for the final step! Step 7 Using double-sided tape, stick the intercooler onto the foam bumper on the chassis… And there you go! And there you go! An intercooler under your favourite hood! Hope you guys like it!
