for those who have turbos, what dimensions are you using? what brand? how big of one will fit? how hard was installation, any customizing? Share your experiences
Last year I used an Air 2 Air IC out of a Supra, was not impressed with it at all, was a big IC but I found out with my driving it heated up rather fast and took up way too much space. I was always having issues with leaks due to the amount of bends and turbo hose not sealing or blowing off during a hard run.
So last winter I bought a Spearco Wir 2 Water intercooler. Not Cheap

The IC alone is worth about $400 and up, then you need a heat exchanger another $100 and up, then you need a pump, another $80 and up. You'll also want to run a good switch to turn it on or off, this can run you around $20. But all in all it takes up little space, I have mine sitting in my fenderwell and the pump tucked up underneith and the heat exchanger in the front. Water cools better then Air thus you will get a colder charge with an Air 2 Water IC but it is complex. If you want simple go with the Air 2 Air. If you want the best, then the Air 2 Water IC IMO is the way to go. Some will not agree with me on that though.
