Has anyone ever built there on front mount intercooler, because i want to try to save some coin but i don't know if i'll get half way through it and give up out of frustration or what. So before i try it i just want a little fore sight into this. Thanks
|
use an isuzu npr intercooler if you can find one they fit perfect
|
Sorry i worded it wrong i was talking about the piping not the Intercooler itself sorry. I was wanting to get the one from corksport but i didn't know how hard it would be to buy universal piping and put it together myself.
|
idk you'd have to mount it and then go from there
|
Could someone please tell me the type of pipe and how many of each i will need to cut back on the guess work please.
|
i bought one of those universal pipe kits from ebay. ill let you know how it works
|
it all depends on your type of intercooler how you mount it and if you want to go with steel piping or aluminum piping. 2.25-2.5 is a good size.
and +1 for the NPR IC it ******* kicks ass and i love mine! i got it for like 50 bucks |
How has that ebay pipe kit come along

i made mine with piping from burns stainless, they have pretty much any diameter you'd need for piping an IC in aluminum.

this is mine installed.. the piping is scraped up from me installing it. but it still works great.

alrighty i got my Frount mount today but i cant find a place to mount it. its 24"l , 6"h, and 3"w. so i was jst wondering where everyone mounted it and how. I know it needs to be in front of the radiator but i want it to be diriectly in the air flow path but i don't know how to mount. i was going to drill holes in the bar in the frount of the car. but i wanted to try asking first
|
i know its not a FC but this is a mixture of a u bend, a 1990 integra intake, and ebay universal piping. lol...
came out good i think. im gonna have someone weld most of it together for less couplers. less chance of them popping off. i cant wled aluminum just yet. |
