does anyone know of a big front mont intercooler to fit on my car, apart from the rs500 one cus kos told me i would have to loose the two inner lights for that to work.....

any suggestions? or otherwise i will have to get GRS to make me one....

twinnned cossie units dude !, use two cores , one on top of the other and have new tanks made to suit , or....

I can supply a unit 70% larger as per the "racecar" thread Kev.

What are the charge temps like ? ambient + ?? on full throttle/boost ? , its not always the IC thats at fault, a compressor outside its efficient range will pump a lot of heat into the intake charge.

as ant says the racecar one is a good one to get. a very good price aswell can i have mine cheaper please now ant free plug LOL

wheres this racecar thread u are on about?? well the intake temp under full boost down the motorway is 14dC coming home last night from south end. in all fairness the cossie cooler is quite efficient, but u cant beat a big fuck off sized cooler that takes up most of the front panel!!!

Don't get one made until you've had a good poke around a scrapyard for one midnight. Check out Volvos and light commercials like Sprinters and Transits for intercoolers. You should find a whole load of different shapes and sizes in any half-decent scrappie for a lot less than it'd cost to get one made.

or get a custom e30 FMIC from me Very nice too

Ooh, you got any piccies Ant?

pics below - with the man himself doing some fettling - overhead shot shows depth of i/c - it's big and fits like a glove behind spoiler/bumper assembly and the front rail

well thats not really far off the size ive got now, i got given a pulsar inter cool er off my mate, so im thinking of getting one of the end tanks moved and rewelded to fit........

what size comparrison is the IC pictured to the RS500?

I will require an IC for my S14 turbo project.

the ic in the picture is about 3 times smaller than the rs500 cooler

true, but its far more efficient Kevin

the fins are stacked alternating to make the surface area 2X the frontal area.

BTW, thats the A-Tech "small" intercooler. there are 2 more in the range, 2X that one and 3.5X that one.

and int hsoe pictures what size is the inlet and outlet?

Thanks
