srt4 intercooler would it be overkill
 
will i have a chance to get a pretty nice stock srt4 intercooler for really cheap and im wondering is this going to affect my 14b set-up on my stock a6 cuz im guessing i can only push my motor to 225 with a good tune. so im wondering if this intercooler will have a negative affect. well im just looking for a intercooler as a universal application because i plan on building my motor for more boost to maybe 300-350hp

The only negative effect would be slightly more pressure drop across it, but don't let that discourage you at all.

It will only improve your setup.

cuz i have to choices either get a used jrc intercooler that is 30x8x2.75 or the srt4 intercooler

Well the 8" JRC is bigger than the srt4 fmic, either will work fine.

Im running a 27X9X3 with a 14b @ 10 psi.
in my EG it barely fit I had to cut the rebar in 1/2 and re weld it.
and it still sits as low as the bottom of my rad support .
between my bad flowing d15b7 long gear trany and over kill IC i have a pretty lagy set up.
but the bigger IC will make a difference when I do my Z6 swap.
just check if it will fit and you should be fine.

I had to remove the 2 suports on the rad and the first layer of fins(no coolant passages) and it is awsom, you kep your washer fluid bottle and everything. keeps the pipes nice and easy. I love the way mine worked out. and also remember. chrysler made it to last as long as the car so it is a way better quality product then most of the egay ----. this IC should last like 10 years

it will be fine since it`s not that big, but they are one of those OEM core that has REALLY REALLY tight packed internal fins.
