It will work but it isn't a very efficient intercooler. Also with 2.00" in/out that is also rather restrictive.

it will work good on a low boost sohc setup but with ones like jonnyracecar and treadstone being just a little bit more money, they are worth it overall.

It wont work well bc its made for a turbo with the compressor the size of a CD disc. Seriously I know a guy with a probe turbo on a stock civic DX that hits full boost by 1800rpm! Youd have better results using an oil cooler as an intercooler lol

yea my buddy runs the full probe turbo set up on his z6 and hes goe full boost in the 2000 rpm area. crazy but it doesnt pull hard after like 5500. turbo is way to small

BTW 60$ is kind of alot for that from a bone yard, he got his whole turbo setup for 75 (turbo,mani,ic) usally IC's go for like 25$
