check out this one, Its for my turbo car, i have to put the end tanks on, but its a liquid to air unit, good to over 2,500 hp, too bad i won’t be making that much. Dual 3 in in, 4 in out. total price invested, 400 bucks. ![http://grantfarmerracing.com/intercoolersmall2.JPG](http://grantfarmerracing.com/intercoolersmall2.JPG) ![http://grantfarmerracing.com/intercoolersmall.JPG](http://grantfarmerracing.com/intercoolersmall.JPG) Fixed pics ---

Pic is up. Turbo guru’s, verify this for me: Don’t you wind up with a big pressure drop if you go too big with the intercooler? ---

Well, I’m assuming its a twin turbo setup. How big are the turbos? The intercooler will cause a slight pressure drop, but it also depends on the pressure the turbo can put out and the airflow it can sustain. ---

also depends on how much IC piping there is too ---

i has 2 te-63’s, with short piping. intercooler pressure drop incured is more than offset with air temp decreases (well below ambiant with icewater). Although thick, if you think about it, that distance that the air passes is only 9 inches, how many air to air intercoolers are only 9 inches wide. ---

Try to find a liquid intercooler for under 400 bucks, see how far ya get. haha no need to be defensive =) i love A2W setups, i think they are amazing, congrats on setting one up :tup: especially if its for the cheap
