    Way Motor Works has again partnered up with DDMworks to develop another fantastic part for your MINI.



    Got a MINI Cooper S GP JCW R53? Or just a GP intercooler on your R53? Now we finally have a better intercooler diverter for you. The stock GP intercooler diverter is pretty sad, it actually covers the additional 2 rows and doesn't catch air very well. So seeing this problem and that the stock cover costs over $200 Way Motor Works combined forces with DDMworks to design a larger diverter that would catch more air, be more efficent, look better and cost less. So after months of work here it is.

    Looks like a nice piece DDM has made.

    Now if I only had a GP intercooler to bolt it on.

    Chuck, I have the GP I/C, if you want I'd be open to you purchasing one and having it shipped to me. Way has my address on file.

    How much is it? And I belive the stock GP diverter does not actually cover up the last two rows, the lip allows the air under it, no? That is a cool looking piece :Thumbsup:

    Nice!:Thumbsup:
    After I get myself out of debt and cure my cars current ills, it will be my next purchase.
    Any pics of it on the GP? Any flat black ones?

    This is a Forge IC that has been fabricated with a scoop that I run on my MINI, it does not interfere with my bonnet and catches air quite well, being enclosed it actually pressurizes the air and forces it down thru the IC, seems to work quite well. :cool:
