Some of the questions about things like water pipes and aircon will be solved as you progress, once the engine is in, you can then see how much room you have for the rad and condenser, and also what shape coolant pipes will be needed to link it all up.

Would the derv rad be any good, or is the i/c too small??

Looking at the derv setup it looks remarkably similar to the Ti setup, the intercooler looks the same, i have been looking at that as an idea also.

I just have not looked in to it enough yet

Only ZRed is breaking one at the moment.

I think noodles zs used a 45td rad and i/c on his Blue mk2 T16.

Cool, thanks for the tip !

Somehow though i really do want the ac, i have had the Ti with ac for so long and you kinda get used to it.

Plus when i had the golf vr6, the ac did not work... so i was giving it some beans on the way home on a hot sunny day with the window half down... and to my horror, a wasp hit the window and bounced on to my lap... now im sh1t scared of wasps so i panicked and floored it to get off the duel carridgeway as quick as i could while trying to brush the damn thing off my lap... then it fell on the seat and went between my legs dangerously close to my nuts... i turned off jumped out and grabbed the closest thing to me... (a pick had randomly in the door bin), and stabbed the thing straight through the leather seat.

I vowed since then to have a car always with ac so i could keep the windows firmly closed

Ta, so that all fits as expected... but i cant see any ac pipework actually going anywhere lol.

Top hose fits well but the a non ac thermostat soooo i may have to scour images !!

I don't think it had a/c.
