IC sounds fine. Gotta remember its usually pretty cold out where you are, so it doesn't have to be a huge unit. I usually put fans on them however.



What is wrong with your current turbo? Why are you looking for an upgrade? Don't do the Ebay unit, they fail a lot and I have seen them take an engine out when they go out. Not worth the risk

Nothing is wrong with the turbo, the exhaust manifold is cracked in 2 places at one of the ports.

I was looking for a replacment and I could only find headers with T4 Mounting and external wastegate. I could block off the wastegate port and make an adapter for my turbo, I think...

This is why I was inquiring about a turbo. The car runs pretty strong the way it is now, I think the computer needs some tweeking in the tune, and it does not have an intercooler.

As far as fans, I was going to mount the IC infront of my Radiator, and add an oil cooler.

Cold out here! Tonopah, AZ? really.... its cooler at night than phoenix but cooler out here? ummmm NOT I WISH
