intercooler to big???
my friend wants to sell me his intercooler its 28x7x3
Im only making 205whp with a d15b w/small 16g turbo, is there such thing as having to big of an intercooler? right now i have a dsm side mount. and want to go bigger, but the one my friends selling is huge! would his intercooler effect spool time/hp if used on my car???

I would imagine that have to move X amount of air through a bigger intercooler would be easier then pushing it throgh a snaller one, causing it to spool fatser, but im a newbie so theres also that possibility that im missing some factor and could be way off with that thought.

Yep, you will get a bit more lag as it has more area to pressurize but it will give you room to grow.

From all the turbo setups that I USED to have on my other hatch...the one that seemed to work best was the PWR unit. Bigger FMIC doesn't always mean it's gonna help out on making power.
