Whats the largest size intercooler I can fit into a 95 integra without major modifications? Cuz I found one that 24inchesx8.5inchesx2.25inches. Will this intercooler fit my car? and yes, the dimensions also include the end tanks. Thanks for any replys

 

that should fit, mine is 24 by 8 by 4 and it fits fine.. well not fine but it fits

 

how big is the drag intercooler? is bigger usually better?

 

Drag IC is 26" x 6.5" x 2.5" Bigger is usually better, until you get into problems fitting the IC in front of the car, or getting alot of pressure drop, or it's heavier than you'd like.

 

Some of the fastest turbo cars run no intercooler at all,such as steph padakis,abel ibarra or kurt moreno with his 9 sec 1.5 sohc hyundai called La Pulga. guess there's nothing like having no restriction and zero pressure drop.

 

it's more like they are running alcohol and they don't have to have one.

 

dont forget the NOS too

 

exactly... with alcohol the car runs much cooler

anyone need an intercooler by the way... 650+shipping... email me afonez@aol.com

 

see if you can get a thicker core, I think they flow better and allows you to reduce frontal area

 

Its never to big!

 

One nice IC Herminator, although the useful are is reduced because the upper portion is covered by the bumper.

 

Can I use a side mount intercooler in a Integra? How efficient are they?

 

I bet that big ol IC sure would look purdy behind the gril on that GMC!

 

Herminator: what kind of IC is that? How much did it cost you.

 

Do those dimensions include the end tanks? Or is that just the meausrements for the core?

 

Actually there is such a thing as to big of an intercooler. But most people just think bigger is better, just like a turbo. blah

 

Those are counting the endtanks.. but not counting the inlet/outlet.

 

that's the greddy type 24 i believe.
