Hey,
I'm in the market for an intercooler for my g3 teg. I was wondering what the largest dimensions are that one will fit without making any modifications to my bumper. At the moment I'm looking a couple that are 35x6x3 and 28x6x2 3/8.

Thanks

Edit: Sorry forgot this info, this is for a 220-270 hp application, using with a t3/t04e turbo, pushing about 7-9 psi. Thanks.

JRC are about your only option, they are cheap too... maybe a drag or revhard one.

 

I had to hack up my bumper to get the drag to fit.

 

Where can I find a jrc ic?

 

I had to trim the grill of my bumper to get my jrc to fit

 

Ive never seen a FMIC that would fit without modification. Look carefully at your grill. Theres very minimal clearance between that and your condensor.

 

its NOT hard to trim that ****, you wont even notice

When I said that I didn't want to modify the bumper I should have been more clear. I'm not worried about it looking good/bad cosmetically, but I don't want to modify my bumper in a way that will weaken it's ability to protect myself in the event of a crash. That's my main reason for not wanting to mod the bumper.

Ok, then get a 6 inch height and 2.5 inch deep JRC intercooler. you will proll have to trim some of your bumper cover. but the bumper support itself will be untouched. i think you may possibly be able to run a 8 inch height IC but 6 would be fine. cutting the bumper cover wont weaken your front in a crash.

 

as long as you don't have to cut the bumper support you should be fine
