without a i/c
 
i am saving up now for a qaulity turbo kit to build up and i was just wondering if i can boost to 8psi without having a I.C. i know it cools down the temps and gives you hp at high boost but will it be alright not to have one at 8psi

Everyone is going to tell you it's not worth it.

You can do it, just have to fiddle with the timing.

Re: without a i/c
 
i dont really want one in the front cuz i suck at welding and that is to many welds and taking off my bumper. does anyone know where i can get a brand new sidemount for less then 200? and how do you guys make your intercooler stay in one place i used zip ties last time it looked like ---- and didnt work very well. i dont want to weld stuff onto the frame though. thanks for the help.

Re: without a i/c
 
Why does it need to be new? Pick up a used dsm sidemount and call it a day. For under 200, you can have a new FRONT mount. Yea, and there are these things called mounting brackets for your intercooler..

Re: without a i/c
 
^ brackets are your best friend.

and from what it sounded like you dont want to put a fmic because you have to take off the bumper? and how are there too many welds if you use brackets?

could just run water injection instead of an intercooler
