undr_psi Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 a few days ago i came across a real good deal on a front mount core. only problem is it was kinda of an impulse buy and im not sure its gunna fit. dimensions are 32x12x3. i know ill have to cut the bump supp. and the bumper it self to let air flow into the FM. any one know if itll fit? also is there such thing as an intercooler being too big for a turbo? thanks in advance for the help. 91 tsi fwd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hal Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 It can be too big depending on the boost and power levels you're running. It's best to get an intercooler sized properly for what you're doing so you can reach maximum efficiency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinman Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 If the end tanks need modification to help with fitment, let me know. I can go as far as making new end tanks if necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowmotionMotorsports Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 If those numbers are right (32x12x3) the core without end tanks, then the intercooler could handle about 1500hp. Now if those number are including end tanks, then about 700hp. Hope your making big power! Joshua SlowMotion Motorsports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
