Default how many psi will a 98' eclipse intercooler front mounted be good for?

i had a 98' eclipse side mount intercooler modified to make it a front mount w/the charge pipes sticking out the sides. i'm mounting it in a 99 civic si b16a w/t25 & will be running 7 psi. will the air still be too hot? or is this intercooler good? also, i heard that with a smaller intercooler you loose less boost. thanks

should be ok i guess. however i would just mount it in the side where the the air box is at. there is this plastic thingy we took off my friends Si. i think its the air resonator or something.
should fit right in there.

ok, lets think about this. you are using a t25 off a DSM and an intercooler off a DSM. GST's/GSX's run 12 psi stock...so since you're using the same IC/turbo setup as a DSM you should be fine. just dont get the IC too close to the motor or it'll become a heatsink...
