Intercoolers

turbotalon1g · 05-31-2006

I am looking for a frontmount, does anyone have any suggestions? Not cheap just quality.
Has anyone heard of extremeintercoolers.com? Was thinking about their 10.5" hybrid core. oh yeah, i just want the core i will be making the piping myself.

I would look for a garrett core. They are really nice quality and are a little cheaper than the other high quality cores.

Yeah, i was just gonna recommend extreme, but then i saw you already found it. I haven't heard of any dsms around here with them. Jet, do you know anything about these guys?

I know of a few locals running those intercoolers, including one of my own cars.

I got my core off of ebay, it looks great, i havent had the chance to pipe it up yet. (kinda funny because ive had the core for almost 2 years now.) the pipes are cut just need to be welded, its coming very soon, ill let everyone know how it goes.

I got mines off from ebay. $120! The core measure was 27x5.5x3
I think it looks pretty good because its bar and plate design and its shiny. The only downfall is that it is kind of small.

That picture was a while ago when I was installing it. Ill get pics of it fully installed for you tommorow.

I got the stock evo fmic for my 1g, and i got the piping off of ebay. i havent gotten the piping yet but its gonna look sikk

I had an Apex core on my 1g. It worked, but I wasn't super impressed with it. For my 2G I didn't want to fuck around at all, so I called up Dave Buschur (buschurracing.com) the day I bought the car and ordered up this little puppy. I've been pleased ever since.

Crooked here, but you get the idea:

OK, I got the pics up. Enjoy! Oh yea, and all the pipes were order on JC whitney. I measured, cut and welded everything myself!

And this is a picture of 3 of us. All the intercoolers here were all custom piping and a no name brand intercooler.

I built my whole setup as well, but I'm very curious how you routed the drivers side piping going from the turbo to the inlet of the IC. Mine has to dip really low to the ground, and I don't like it like that. Do you have any other pictures or how you routed that side?

Im also want some info I sold mine and I want to get one that fills air dam up in my 2g stock bumper, I like scheide's intercooler but I dont think I wanna pay that much. lmk

94talonawd · 06-10-2006

Ummm. Actually I dont. But I will get pictures of it though since I need to take off my front bumper tommorow anyways.

1g's work better with the pipes coming out of the back of the endtanks. 94taon, you NEED to get a bigger core to fill on that sexy opening in the eagle's bumper.

I just got my race core in the mail. 28x13x3 I think are the dimensions.
