largest intercooler in an 8g?

[4G64T]

it doesnt have to be huge but i dont want no honda size one either i was thinking of going with a 21x9x3 do you guys think this will fit without havin to cut up the front bumper?

[galantv600]

thought bout the Evo intercooler?

[4G64T]

thats true huh i kind of wanted one that had both endcaps on one side...
or do you think we could get away with routing one of the pipes one the passenger side

[HeadAche]

I test fitted one already, it was 24x10x8, i think thats the size, but the fogs gotta come out, as well as the bars in the front...

[4G64T]

thats good to know cuz i already got rid of my fogs and the bars i was looking at the car today tryin to figure out how im gonna mount it

[DJ Galant]

mount it on the front enforcment bumper (you gonna have to proably cut it a little), you can install the hangers there - easiest way i can see it.
Drill a hole in that bumper, and u can also use radiator support column.
Very easy to mount it, though a little measuring involved.
Also, u gonna have to cut out the lip piece on your stock front bumper, because in my case in was on the way.
Good luck.

in addition to my fmic(rre pipes, jdm 240hp rs intercooler), i also have water injection. i have 2 nozzles, one right after the turbo, one right before the t/bdy. the effect is quite dramatic. after a couple of good runs, if you touch the pipe right after the turbo, it is very hot, if i engage the water injection, the pipe INSTANTLY gets cold. not cool, COLD. when i tuned my car, wot(560 injectors, 18 lbs boost) at 7100 rpm, with the afc at +4-7 on the hi setting, i got 3 knock, and timing was 23, inj duty cycle was 87%. this was WITHOUT the water injection. with the wi, at 7100 rpm, and the afc at 0 on the hi settings, knock 0, timing 28, inj dc 76%. egt's run about 150 deg lower, o2 shows richer. besides cooling better than most air to air intercoolers, wi will also raise the octane level as much as 4 points, AND, clean all of the carbon off the valves and the combustion chambers, the tops of the pistons in my motor look brand new. spark plugs look new, and have just a very light tan coating. with no carbon buildup, tuning becomes very consistent. you guys installing a bf front mount should consider going to a smaller front mount, and water injection.

I was thinking of the water injection but decided to go with co2 instead theres a kit on ebay one of the members here already got it and a couple of my friends got it too works great and is safer then nitrous... i already have nitrous which i'll use untill my kit is complete then i'll sell it

[ken inn]

co2 is external. water injection is internal. apples and oranges. the cost is near the same, the benefits of water injection, or water/alcohol injection are far better than co2. 93 octane becomes 97. no more mcc. stuff like plugs, valves, etc. stay clean, so tuning becomes consistent. wi does a much better job of eliminating knock than co2. last time i checked, water was a lot cheaper and easier to get than co2
