Best front mount intercooler for the dollar

[TrAb]

I had to do that on mine as well. I just picked up a section of hose from the local o-reillys and thats worked fine for me.

Well i tried autozone and advanced auto and they didnt have crap. Do you think all orielly's would have something?

I double dog dare you to not even use and metal piping and just use the entire silicon tube from Turbo to IC. :biggrin:

I think Grumpy has a V2 17 or 20 row stock location an went upper 9's

we have an old CAS V4 stock location. If your trying to get every once of power out of the car the front mount is the choice of the masses We are concerned with street manners (water temps) as ours is used every day in the summer.. put on 8500 miles last summer alone. Plus our car has to look like a nothing car when ya open the hood :biggrin:

but the man with the most money usally has the faster car. lol.

really ???? look at a lot of "signatures" in here and the $$$ and all the "cool guy" parts that has been thrown at the car.. They are 9 sec cars running 12s

Just wanted to here what your opinions were on which front mount might be better for performance, quality, fitting, and of course the all mighty dollar. Im sure its been discussed a thousand times so i apologize in advance for bringing it up again.

Come on know!!
Yeah but put all those “cool guy” parts $$$ then take it to a top notch tuner $$$$$$$ and now lets see how fast it will go.
How much would you charge to tune my car?
I probably couldn’t afford to drive in to your shop.

How many tuning hours do you have into your car? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I just got my IC325 Mega cooler from RJC. And the Attention to detail on it was something else like a work of art. It looks like Someone that gives a s**t put it togeather. not an assembly line. I got a screaming deal on it and Got the Real deal instead of the China junk. #1 RJC

It would be nice if somebody else actually has the logging equipment to actually show what's going on with the intercoolers if this test happens. E.T. and MPH doesn't really tell the whole story.

 

[S2V6RACER]

OK, the FASTEST & QUICKEST TSM car and only 109 block in the 8's, Dick Kereny, uses the RJC!

I'm pretty sure the TSM MPH and E.T. record holder upgraded from a Cottons front mount to a RJC unit prior to setting the world on fire...

I think that says it all. Quality has no fear of time. Or E.T.s
