Intercooler Question
I am now tired of my air to water setup because t is a constant pain in my ***. It is never consistent air temps and it eats bags of ice like no other.
My question is how much power can be made on those big ebay intercoolers. The 3 inch in and three inch out ones.

there is a vendor on here that has them for like $250 or $260 shipped

but if u want to be safe go with Precision, even the 750hp core is mildly rated, and will support well over 800whp. They go for about $400-$420 shipped
and Precision also makes a 825hp core cooler for about $550 . Thats what i went with. I'm not a big Water-Air fan.

Re: Intercooler Question
A guy local has one and I am going to trade some wrench time for it.
IMO, Air to water sucks the big one. I wish I would have never put that crap on my car. I bet I have spent 200 dollars on ice and drove the car 20 times. Your constantly having to fill it, drain it, fill it, drain it, .... I strongly recommend to anyone that wants to have any sense of streetablity left in their car to not do an ATW setup.
Thanks for the info.

Re: Intercooler Question
I know what your saying, I will be using an ATW setup, UNLESS I can get some sort of IC with a ducting setup but I'm unsure where to draw the air from. but in an MR2, its difficult to get clean air to cool the charge with. And I'm not riggin up some BS scoop to look all ghetto.

Re: Intercooler Question
Give your air/water a chance... Get a fan on the HE, bigger HE, wrap it if its in the engine bay, look at your pump, check for air bubbles (they are a bitch to get out).
Every setup I have done, I have always preferred the air/water.

Re: Intercooler Question
I did, It was working correctly, just not what I want to deal with anymore.
Plus it might give me a reason to do a HMT top mount on my ef. Do any of you guys have some pictures of a topmount B series for an ef?
