Merry Christmas all

Just wondering if anyone out there has any first hand experience with one of northside 4x4's water to air itercoolers and whether u think it's worth the cash they're asking

I'm looking into one of these for my 2004 td42ti

What are you wanting to achieve? I honestly think there over priced with the other options out there. You could do a w2a or a2a fmic for easily under $1000 these days. I also wouldnt go anywhere near that shop but that's just me.

People highly recommend and get awesome results out of the cross country top mounts and it come with everything to fit it and if i remember correctly the cross country unit will still be cheaper than he northside one.

Im against C/C ICs but only for business reason and the fact they are a pack of liers. If you want to pay $1300 bucks on an I/C So be it. but not me ever.

Just the business ethic, they will refuse to tune certain setups and are expensive. I must reiterate that this is only my personal opinion. If you are happy with the customer service and info then ultimately its up to you.

Yea mate I do agree they have a strange approach on customer service, if anyone knows of any other peputable diesel tuners in seq im willing to take any suggestions on board and don't mind traveling to get good results

Theres a couple. If distance doesnt worry you Diesel Central near rockhampton is prob the best tuner in oz. You also have Mike Vine Turbo at capalaba and Gympie Diesel. There is a small shop at brendale, on and offroad mechanical, ask for steve if a tune is what you want. Thats about all I know of.

You can get w2a kits very cheap these days, look at websites such as froozen boost thats where i get my kit from. It's the 600hp kit comes with everything you need even clamps etc tho its not a bolt on thing and you need to fit it all its still worth it for the quality and price.
