What do you think about those ford powerstroke ic's?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6770
do you guys think it's worth it?
P.S - The reason I'm looking at this ic is because I've been searching for a huge ic that cover the front hole of the ww rs kit (on crx that is). I don't like the idea of showing my pipping and this ic pretty much cover the front mouth. The thickness is only 2" but it should fit fine since it's ef's we're talking about. My only concern is if they can get rid of the heat as fast since my crx is my daily driver.

Seems a bit tall.. sure it'll fit?
It's got lots of surface, I wouldn't see why it wouldn't cool your charge fairly well.
I just don't remember seeing 18" worth of space in the front of my car.
I guess maybe if you removed your A/C condenser and put it right in front of the radiator before the hook latch, rather than in your front bumper.. maybe, but unless you reweld those end tanks, you won't be able to pipe that.
And right in front of your radiator won't "fill your ww kit".

pics arent loading but every powerstroke core i have seen is quite skinny. like 1" and thats not so good for our cars. you could cut it into 3 pieces and sandwich them all toghther and have a GTR size core. 
can be done.

well, the dimension is 30" X 18" X 2". Supposely 2" thick.
As you can see..the front mouth is huge and most of the turbo crx's with ww kit looks funny with starion ic (being able to see like the frame and all). I should go do a measurement and see what the front mouth is like.
P.S - Stupid me, I just measure the front mouth. It should be 30 X 7. 18 length is a bit long
Anybody here can reweld this baby to make it 7 instead of 18?
