This is for all you Renegade guys.
Im thinking of selling my basically newely built race motor for my 914 and getting a wrx swap in there. From what i have seen on the Renegade site i realize i dont need all the $7200 worth of stuff to get this thing to be a reality and goin in my car. I also dont see too many pics of thier so called options installed on the cars. I would like to see some pics of ppl's setups so i can get an idea of what i will need to do or not do as far as those options go. Im sure if i talked to them they would say that i need that stuff (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Also does thier kit come with a wiring harness or is that something that i will have to build? thx. _billy |

How do you guys handle the rotation of the intercooler and inlet connections? It seems like the rather complicated cast I/C connector pieces and formed Y-pipe tube wouldn't lend themselves very well to and changes in direction or alterations?
I've considered using a WRX intercooler in my conversion - since it already has the nice matched I/C to throttle body connection. But the turbo to inlet ports hardware doesn't look very "user friendly" for any kind of reconfiguration work (at least not bolt-on). Anyone have a pic of the underside of the I/C right before you place it in the car - with the connection bits in place? Jeff |

Jeff The intercooler is stock and unmolested the tubing and brackets you see above takes care of the rotation and mounting, it's a bolt on! |
