Not sure why you would take off the intercooler, but if you remove the air filter it sounds pretty cool
i found out why they take off the intercooler as in Brendans post
The City Turbo II was not much better, it's intercooler was virtually an 'interheater' as it was very small and was exposed to very little airflow.
and another reason might be if this particular turbocabriolet is converted into turbo and left with cabriolet radiator it wont have enough room (it needs smaller T2 radiator)
I still dont know why it doesnt have the air filter tho. will have them on as soon as it gets shipped over here in Auckland.
as for the flex point in the doors I will have to find a way to fix them.
welding a parallel bars inside door as beiglboe suggested - if there is enough room inside or at least a pannel welded on.. if not i might invest on another pair of doors?? haha. sounds funny but I really like this set up ay.
I though I was going to have best of both worlds but it seem like im ending up with more problems. but Im really keen to make this work and will keep everyone posted =) thanks again for the feedbacks chaps!
