Top Mount or Front Mount Intercooler?

[WhiskeyGN]

By "Top Mount" I meant stock location lol. Need some opinions on this one. TE44 Turbo with 3" downpipe and headers.

get rid of the hypertech first

 

[TType85]

I agree. Get rid of the hypertech chip. Get a TT chip, put a alky kit on the car and stick with the stock IC.

Edit: Dutt neck on the IC might be good though.

and the headers...

 

[WhiskeyGN]

Yea I'll keep the $800 hooker headers I just put on but the TT chip and alky is on the hit list for things to come shortly. How much better is a Dutt Neck I see them alot but

Top mount?? What are you working on a Subaru??

 

[WhiskeyGN]

haha no I miss typed and then couldn't change it after the fact

 

[WhiskeyGN]

and the headers...

What's wrong with headers pacecarta?

 

[Slow91z]

They have been proven to slow cars down due to slow spool, i suspect they may be fine on a real fast car but there are much better options out there for a car like yours. Like for instance the ta stock replacement headers.

 

[WhiskeyGN]

Well I already istalled them lol. They seem to improve the flow and I don't notice any lag but who knows.

Yup.
My vote is for a rear mount IC . TT chip too. Then alky of coarse. And don't forget that you'll need some sticky tires. And, and, and,

It never ends. What ever you do, just be sure and enjoy the ride.
