Default Is this intercooler bad????

-is there any particular reason my intercooler has the outlets facing the same side??

-Is this worse then if they were on both sticking out on each end tank?

-Also im wondering if this piping setup looks right. i also have a shorter pipe (about half the length of the green one) is this for an integra i mean it looks like it.

-And finally will this intercooler be good enough for 200-300 hp?

thats the wrong configuration for a b-series, but it may work, just not the optimum set-up (the piping mainly)

personally, i would sell it and get an intercooler with the end tanks pointing opposite directions

i don't think you have the pipes set up right..try movin them around...that lower outlet will probably sit below your front bumper alot of cutting...it doesn't look right at all thou...i have a U shaped bend on one side of my IC and the other side has a half circle bend for the IC...GOOD LUCK

yeah, those pipes totally suck, but the intercooler itself is nice

you could get new pipes made or you could get a new end tank that went the right way, or you could get a different intercooler...i just wouldn't use those pipes

well it would fit ok, but the end tanks are still wrong for a 92-95 civic, even with the stock motor
