For 4-450whp I'd look for something around 24x8x3. PTE, PWR, Spearco etc all make good intercoolers you could look at.

I'd look into a presicion intercooler they have a variety of sizes
just don't go too long or tall for YOUR setup or else pressure drop = teh suck

I have about the same setup as you do and this works really well for me this is the reason why i got a body kit is because the front bumper is really open and fit the intercooler perfect

Ill measure my type 24 for you tomorrow and let you know how big it is. It's too damn tall IMHO though. I would guess its about 30-32 inches across from endtank to endtake though.

You need something like this if you're looking for 500 whp. It's a XS Engineering intercooler. The core is 24x11x3.
