Im making a V-mount setup for my SR equipped S13, i currently have a huge ass xspower (600x300x76mm.) intercooler.. That seems to be to big.
So what im looking for is a intercooler which can fit in front of the engine, welding/modifying the endtanks will be done.. :)
Anyone?
thanks in advice

get out your tape measure and see what will fit your engine bay. I dont know if you are planning on cutting the radiator support bar so that makes a difference in size.

Measure everything out and see if you can find a premade one. If not get a custom sized intercooler made.

mitsubishi starion intercooler will fit fine.

there are better cores that that - even on ebay.

When i ran vmount i used a 27x9x3 with the endtank outlets moved.

changed turbos and went midmount when i put the turbo up top... otherwise - ic setup worked good (once i got a in-line/hose waterneck.)
