Well I am looking for a Intercooler for my 88 Rex. I realy like these ones but Iam nost sure what will fit... I know the smaller ones does but yeah


Dimensions: 26.75"L x 6.20"H x 3.50"D 350-Hp


Dimensions: 31.50"L x 8.00"H x 3.50"D 600-Hp


.
So are any of you guys or gals using these or have any pics?

 

I have an 89 crx with a b16a and custom turbo. I currently use a Full-Race (shorty) civic Rad. I have a very hard time keeping engine temps. down now. I use the 26.75"L x 6.20"H x 3.50"D 350-Hp Precision Intercooler. How much HP do you plain on getting? Reason I ask is becouse I think the reason my car is overheating is a cobination of size of my radiator and the very large intercooler blocking most of the air that use to hit the radiator directly.

 

GOD DAMN THATS A BIG PIC!

Im using a 92-95 civic alum rad.. and a slimline fan.. Its also mounted on an angle

Im using a 350hp Precision IC.. And full beam.. I hope i dont have any cooling issues.. i have an aftermarket gauge so ill beable to watch them carefully..

Im considering drilling some maybe 3" round holes though my bumper cover/beam right at the area of the radiator so it can get some decent airflow.. not sure how this will look from outside the car. It will be used as a last resort.

Pic. (yeah i know everythings messy/dirty.. its just all fitted for mock up, its comming back apart)

Wait.. we-todd-did is down, no pic

 

Well thee turbo I just got is 64 on the compressor side and 63 on the turbine side.. so there is alot of room to grow.

The smaller one seems to be what i am leaning twards as I am still on the stock bottom end... so HP wil not be very high. If anyone has any pics please post more up of what you have

 

otto: what kind of fans are you running? do you have a pic of your engine bay?

 

I can't find my patch cord to download the pics of the engine bay. As soon as I get the cord I'll send pics.

you could always coat the mani. i cant believe your having overheating problems with that radiator. works like a champ for me

 

I have been contemplating thermal wrap and jethot coating. Do you think that would help?? I'm in upstate New York and in the summer it gets kinda hot.

thats what im running and mine takes a day 1/2 to warm up oh and ive never had any overheating issues. oh yeah 12" slim fan too

 

yes it does help damatically. everything in the engine bay is getting heat soaked so, your engine temps warm up. plus, this also helps to promote detonation . If I were you, i would atleast therma wrap it until you have the funds to jetcoat it aswell. Hopefully that mani is well built.
