is treadstone performance a good intercooler setup
bm8 intercooler ... ~1psi drop 2.5 in/out ... 2.5 stainless steel piping and silcone couplers with t-bolt clamps good upto 510hp all for about $420 the pic shows worm gear but you can get t-bolt for a little more

 

If it comes w/ all that piping... that is a good deal. That's a long *** IC tho... make some measurements on your car first to make sure it will all fit. Is it a Z31 kit?

 

well no it's not a z31 kit the intercooler is $199 and the piping kit is $229 ... but here's the measurements

Core Size, 7.8" X 22" X 3.5"
Overall lenght 28"
2.5" inlet/outlet
760 CFM flow rate

will it fit? ... they have a smaller one.

 

You're the one w/ the car... go measure it

 

i just found some pics with it installed so i guess it will fit

 

dam thats pretty thick though, for an intercooler isn't it?

 

That's a tight setup... literally Looks like they used an electric rad fan to make the piping fit.

 

ya i was pretty sure i would have to install an e-fan to get it to fit and 3.5 inches is not that thick for an intercooler is it?

 

What really kills me is that you hardly ever see an intercooler setup that retains the factory air conditioning system. So, I guess the only way is to "replacate" the HKS piping setup.

 

do you know of any pictures of the hks setup ... I live in dallas texas, and I don't know if I could live with out A/C, t-tops are nice and all but a month of 110 is no fun for somebody who is originally from chicago

 

come home man... just come back home here in chicago...
