My current ghetto set-up keeps blowing charge pipes, i want something better as well as a really nice intercooler to replace my junkyard one.

I was looking at SSAutoChrome (how can you **** up an intercooler and charge pipes?) I e-mailed them because their small intercooler is the same price as a large one they have.

Top is the one i want, bottom is one for the same price.




In my research, i have found that their intercoolers are actually very good. Unfortionately, when i e-mailed them, they said they couldn't give me the first intercooler in place of the one included in a charge pipe kit, they only offer charge pipes with the small intercooler.

I'll probably still stick with getting the first intercooler, however, i can't find charge piping. A little help?

 

yea...phil from spoolin performance is awsome...bead rolled edges, metal of your choice, bov flange choice etc....

 

Spoolin Performance is niiiiiice

 

Sup bar code man, haven't seen you around in a while.

I just finished the turbo setup on my 92 civic and used a stealthmode charge piping kit. It is $110 shipped and has much more piping than you need. I had enough left to make a downpipe and STILL didn't even use the straight section at all! You can choose 2, 2.25, or 2.5" (what I have)

Nice, thanks for that link!

$110 is going to be impossible to beat, does it have a nipple for a universal valve by chance?

 

No nipples included, sorry. His customer service also can't be beat. Tell him Jizzmaster sent ya

Actually, I guess all he offers is a 2.5" kit. But that's good for any setup

 

Yeah, 2.5" is fine, my Intercooler i plan buying is 3" however. I'll figure out something to do about that, i have some reducers i bought from Autozone that should be able to take the boost fine.

i concor that

 

My tunertoys 2.5" charge pipes were $100 shipped and my xo2 intercooler was $225 shipped.

Total price after couplers was $350 and the intercooler kicks ***.

BTW, the two intercoolers pictured probably have a vast difference in thickness - the one in the lower pic looks really thick.

 

The first intercooler is:

600mm X 300mm X 76mm

Second is:

460mm X 160mm X 90mm

14mm thicker, but overall surface area of the first is much larger.

Autozone reducers + 18psi of boost =........

 

Hahaha!

Okay, i'll go with a different approach.

 

Just get some good couplers. This happened last week at the track. I thought I messed up the motor, I heard a loud backfire at the top of 4th gear. Go to the pits and that is what I found, lol.

 

haha

i guess you are using silicone now?

I'd hope so. It's not like 18 bucks at HTS will break the bank or anything.

Speak for yourself. I'm going $10 ebay style.

 

I'll be going Silicone, i was PM'd a link to fab-works.com, i talked to anthonie from there about a "sponsorship" discount. I'll gladly load my car up with stickers for cheap intercooler piping and other things.
