HI I currently have a stock sr20det with a downpipe and exhaust.
My plans:
-upgrade to 550 cc injectors
-n60 or n62 Mass air flow
-Greddy e-manage or JWT ECU


My goal is 300hp street car. I will never drift or take it to the track. So Can I use a Small Front mount intercooler? Size 27 long 6 height and 2 1/2 wide. I know everyone uses a 12 inch height intercooler but is it overkill?

Umm..What hp are you aiming at.

That intercooler is fine. Are you still running a t25?

You should have "bigger turbo" under your plans too...

The size of your fmic is fine. (again)

-going a little bigger it wouldnt hurt.
-walboro 255
-some good 550cc injectors
-n62 maf
-front mount
-boost about 11 or 12 pounds
-and a good tune, u should have no problem hiting 300hp.(u should look into a good exhaust mani and turbo elbow tho. but thats just me)
