That intercooler is more than enough for 95% of the 2200s on here.

to the OP, stop being so lazy:

Yea its all i will need for now (only planning on running 9 psi until motor is built). i forget the dimensions but i went for one that was a little deeper rather than wider or longer. its a pretty decent size for what i need.

And i got one of the aluminum intercooler piping sets off of ebay. It was a pretty good deal, got alot of piping and i still have a bunch left over. I want to see how the couplers hold up under boost, im slightly weary of whether or not they'll hold and that will determine whether or not i decide to weld most of it if i can, or buy steel piping to weld.

Thank you. Its actually N/A right now, i got a jump on the install so the final install would go a lil quicker. All im waiting on is DP and exhaust (odered a welder this week and the piping next week) so its almost done. But I have a T3/T04B, (70a/r compressor 45a/r turbine) thats waiting to be put in. I cant wait... we were set back quite a bit becuase we had to replace the clutch in our SS.

Yea, im very exited. The depressing part is that its been ready to install for 3 months now, just haven't had the spare money to buy the welder and DP/exhaust piping... sucks when its that little holding you back lol. but i don't want to rush it, certainly a task worth taking your time on. And if your not ready than i would suggest taking your time and research as much as you can. At first I didn't realize how much is actually needed when you narrow it down, (fortunately my bf did so he knew where to start). Especially with the tuning aspect :-p

You can't convince me that a piece of steel tubing sandwiched between 2 pieces of radiator hose counts as an intercooler!

Oh, just wait for its return Anyone remember Tony Gibson's top-mount? I got a hold of one of those Saab intercoolers, so I'm going to be doing some '96 hood choppin' before the '03 front end goes on.

That's what I'm running in my Sunbird. Plastic tank model is supposedly close to sudden death around 17 psi. Pics of that one and I/C piping are in the 1st gen forum, "Speed Mods" thread.

RDFabs, pic looks good.

Could have at least used some acid to clean the carbon off around the welds.

What welds on our tubing?? They aren't mandrel bend either.
