    Intake manifolds and larger intercoolers...who's running what?

    Hey guys,
    I'm trying to do a poll here, although I don't know if it will actually work. I am curious how many of you are running larger front mount intercoolers and which intake manifold are you using? Those of you who have something in the works, please speak up, too!

    What would be ideal for your set-up?

    Thanks!

    He He!

    Off course my solution is not listed as an alternative!

    I run a bigger IC and a bigger custom build IM with the TB in the same pos as stock! This due to my rad for the AC. A/F ratio gets a little high in rush traffic, but in normal speeds and above everything looks fine on the computer.

    Well, so far so good for an 515BHP setup, we will see this summer if it can take a little increase in boost...

      I have a large IC to fit, but not on yet. Also looking at fitting a reverser IM at same time.

        Mine has larger i/c (600x300 core) 63mm intake pipe throughout, stock 3b inlet though. No extra lag. Big drop in intake temps during mapping (RS2 Turbo)

          Where would you class the RS2 IC?
          It's larger than the "standard", depending on what car you started with

            ah yes, that should fall under larger intercooler with standard intake manifold.
            What have you done for cross-member, Bry?

              I did a 24x12x3 FMIC and Dahlback intake manifold.

                  24x12x3 IC, self made dual plenum IM with 80mm TB (Holley Mustang).

                  Ran the whole set up for a few hundred miles and it all went OK. Engine out for replacement now, so I'll test it some more when the new motor is in.
