my intercooler got a pretty good sized "dent" (i cant think of a better word) in it the other day and i was wondering if anyone has ever fixed an intercooler before, or if it is even worth fixing (that depends on whether or not i would lose power from it being damaged, or isnt it really an issue?)
my digicam is unfortunately having difficulties right now but i downloaded a pic of an intercooler. the red area on it is the area that got litterally compacted up (from a distance it looks like that area is missing but its there, just got squished up lol)


running a greddy turbo kit on a gsr btw

 

just get a new one, not worth fixing something so damaged.

 

As long as it isn't leaking it most likely just pinched shut that area. So your fmic is just that much smaller ... unless you were at your coolers max hp rating already its not such a big deal.

Sell it on ebay for $20 and buy a better one. Call it a shitty day with an upgrade.

 

cool thanks. anyone know the max HP rating for a greddy 24v by any chance?
recomend a brand/size for 300-350hp range thats not too expensive?

 

i have the 24v on my gsr, and from comparing it to some of the other brands ratings for that size i think it may be good for around 325-350 hp.

 

awesome, thanks

 

I think precision has some pretty affordable 350hp fmics.

 

Yep I have a nice PT-350 thats taking up space....

 

Here is a pic of the pt350, ill get you a better one later.
