Largest intercooler on a honda
What is the largest intercooler you have seen on a honda, whether it be street driven or race only?
I'm talking about air/air intercoolers.
It is debated whether a thicker intercooler is much better than a thinner one, but if thickness does not help that much, then why do most very high hp supras run the greddy 4 row (which is like 5 inches thick) aprrox. dimensions of core 24" X 12" X 5"
obviously all this only applies to very high horsepower applications with big turbos
does anyone know of a place that sells precision cores?

Re: Largest intercooler on a honda (b18bturbo)
24" X 11" X 3" that is the size of the core I currently have.
I was debating going to a thicker one and using the one I already have on another car.
My Integra will be running very high boost 35+ psi with a SP71 GTQ turbo, so maybe the thicker one would help out some.

Re: Largest intercooler on a honda (Muckman)
I was thinking of that too. Some sort of heatsink on the whole piping? The air flow of car should cool it? -=P
Wellz, im sure it wont be sufficient as a normal intercooler
But be different i guess.
TooOoo muCh trouble.. Thats why~

PTE 750 HP intercooler 
But trying to push 800+ WHP and 35+ pounds of boost, look into an air/water. They still do good on the street, but much better for the strip.

Air/Waters are now illegal for NHRA sport FWD.

Re: Largest intercooler on a honda (m R g S r)
I think those are the cast Supra endtanks. They need to be extended so that the piping can fit around the body. If not, the intercooler is going to sit very far forward and the bumper may not fit. Thats how alot of us do it over here in Hawaii.
