You need a 24"x6"x2.5" fmic off ebay. They're all the same so whichever one is cheapest.

Case close, YMMV, just my .02, LSMFT.

Won't support 475whp.. Not even close

Did you even bother to read that link? that even told you what kind of design the Mishimoto was and that you need a larger sized area to do that power.

If you say you didn't have time, then any decision you make from this point on will be on your own head to make the mistake.

Then please assist yourself best and use a webpage translator and apply the information accordingly. Since you know English is the primary language for this forum, you'll need to prepare for that, especially since you'll be linked to many other areas of this site.

We don't know your geographic / cultural background, who you are or where you come from, so you can't expect us to figure out what's in your mind

Keep reading as best you can.

If you really don't understand the concepts and ideas, and can't read what's being posted well enough to understand them, then plenty of companies sell their intercoolers with horsepower ratings. Look at Treadstone intercoolers - they all have a horsepower rating. That will (over)simplify the whole process for you.

Heh. They're still inaccurate, but not nearly as inaccurate (posting crank HP) as a Precision or Mishimoto

Could be better, could be worse At least I'm not telling him to get an intercooler half the size he needs.
