Or would I be safer off cutting a nick in the pipe and bending it then welding over?

Apologies for the very poor images - theyre from my work Nokia E51 which has a sh*te camera

The other one burned out! Because it wasnt a genuine SPAL

I only need one at present until the hot weather - I have it set to come on when the IAT is higher than 40 degrees - and it only ever comes on in traffic

It is surprisingly efficient that intercooler - and its location gets very good airflow
