Default will a 21x9x3 intercooler fit on my crx?

I'm looking at getting an intercooler for my crx. It has a B18c1 in it and i'll be running 10 psi max this year, I was looking at the Street Imports intercooler:

http://www.streetimports.com/p...d=359

Would this be overkill (flow wise) for my car? I was thinking about getting the bigger one to give me room for upgrading in the future.

And will this physically fit ok on a CRX? I have a full bodykit so I don't think it will hang below the bumper

Anyone that can give me some good advice on this would be appreciated

Go to http://www.johnnyracecar.com and look at intercoolers. Thats what I run and slow90hatch is running. Pictures of intercooler on the car can be found by searching through recent slow90hatch post. Here are specs on intercooler im running

Core size: 25 wide X 7.75 tall X 2.75 deep

Overall: 30 from outside of end tank to outside of end tank X 8.5 tall X 3.125 at the thickest

Standard Piping: 2.5 OD X .065 wall X 2 long (2.25" OD available to save money on reducers)

There are twelve cooling rows and eleven fin rows on this intercooler.

The cooling rows on this intercooler are internally finned.

The end tanks have a brushed finish.

The threaded mounting points are steel. There are three inserts in the top and three inserts in the bottom.

Good luck on decision

Josh

Was looking at that one before but he won't ship to canada so it's no good to me

But the sizing is close. And I can't find the pics of slow90hatch's setup
