Stock intercooler needed.........

[TURBOV6]

Anyone got one for sale? My stock one is leaking but need to replace it for now.

Jackson, can you see where it is leaking at? A little epoxy might work on it.

Thanks it in the core

Have you tried pressure testing it? I haven't tried it yet, but have read on previous posts that using a tire tube to connect the two ends together then filling with air through the valve works pretty good. You can check with a soapy water mix or submerging the intercooler under water and looking for air bubbles. Tony from CAS recommended testing at 40 - 50 psi on a previous post on the subject.

Thanks Mick, I filled the IC with gasoline and notice it leaking from the core, I don't think you could repair it unless you rip into the core.

Just use the one you borrowed for now...

..and maybe the guy you borrowed it from will sell you his front mount later on.

Oh ye with little faith!

Jackson, let me pressure test the intercooler for you. If it is leaking in an accessible area, epoxy should be able to fix it. I'll also test it submerged under water just to be sure.

It inside the core, I filled up the IC with gasoline tilted it and then it leaked, you can see it pouring out of the core section. It a steady stream of gas also. If you epoxy it won't it blow out at 30lbs of boost! Thanks anyways Mick.

Kevin Mease is offering to take or credit towards his modify stock IC(with the bigger neck). But the bad thing I purchased a IC from someone on the board . Anyone seen Kevin's IC?
