Thanks WR, if you find more let me know.

BTW, This project is still on going, I've just run into two problems... no time, and no money.

 

Find some.Good to see you boosting something though ignore the haters and make it happen

 

looking good keep working on it


but is it really worth blowing your motor to ---- over where you place a intercooler?

you would be better off not running a intercooler then having your ---- mounted inchs from the turbo and manifold

 

Dan, you don't have to get a new intercooler, stupid nog.

Get creative with what you have and find a different mounting position.

I've tuned a setup just like that, except with an ihi turbo. That ---- was so close it's not even funny.

After a few runs, that intercooler was an interheater.

I'm sure it won't blow up, as long as it's tuned well.

If you're still wanting to do it your way, then I suggest you run higher octane and/or some kind of IC sprayer for wot runs.

 

from what I remember:
for that intercooler, you have to notch a rectangle out of the bottom of the bumper support.
you have to grind a corner of the radiator support for the lower inlet.
The charge piping will go up over the turbo next to the radiator and back.

 

after owning that same intercooler as a front mount for some years i will say they do heat soak a bit, but its actually still an efficient intercooler. on my buddeis .60/.63 t3 it works well. good luck with the project

to hopefully give you a baseline or estimate, there are people running 13s in 1st gen probes with that ihi turbo (its efficient up to ~15psi) and bolt ons. 2.2L n/a makes 110whp 130wtq. redlines at 6Krpm, curb weight is 2900

 

is this thing boosted yet?

 

Waiting on parts. Full set of piping, bov and fat FMIC will be in the mail from Japan to me shortly, I hope. I also have a flange/small pipe for my o2 housing for a 3" exhaust coming (it'll be a 3" open downpipe to start), so all I will need is oil lines and I still need an adapter plate, but those may be in the works soon as well.

 

still gonna run the ihi or did you change that out?

 

China not Japan, Dan. You're not j4y d33 3m. :P Craig for the lines, ho.
