Default Intercooler Question

Ok i am planning on boosting my stock ls to about 10psi. I currently have an intercooler measuring 18.5" wide (core only without endtanks) X 9" high X 2.75" wide and it has 2" inlet and outlet. My question is would this be a suffecient size intercooler for what i want to do. I noticed most guys are running 2.5" charge piping. any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Thanks
Khiz

What kind of power are you hoping to make? I have a car in the shop now with a I/C about the same size and it is making around 285 at the tire at 10 psi. I have not checked the pressure drop across the core.

You should be able to make decent power with the i/c you have.
