HKS make a good one, as do Norris Designs and with the ND FMIC you don't need to buy a smaller battery because the pipework doesn't go through the battery tray like the HKS.

Heres a picture of the ND intercooler...

And the HKS CA intercooler (Obviuosly the HKS item is huge but it also cost alot more than the ND IC)

An SR FMIC should fit except for the IC to throttlebody pipe will have to be altered as the intake manifold sits at a slightly different angle. the turbo to IC pipe should be the same tho.

How much (in dollars) is the norris design intercooler? THe hks is 700 dollars

There is a cheaper alternative, a common swap in the U.K. is an IC from a Saab 900 2.3 Turbo, its quite large and very cheap

also the pipework is very simple.

I used to have one fitted, but I went for the uprated version of it as made by Pace Products.

thats pretty nice. Did we get that Saab with that set up here in the states? Anyone?

I think so. I see them often at Ebay.com. The model u need is from a Saab 9000cse (2.3l engine), but watch out there are 2 differrent models available, one with the in/outlet openings pointing to the side, thats the one u need(the otherone has the openings pointing to the engine).

Thread hi-jack ! :icesangel I'm considering going w/ a Starion IC since it's dirt cheap by comparison. Do you folks think it's big enough and where can I get some IC piping made, I'm aimin for 300HP ... but once i get there i'll be bitten by the speed bug i'm sure, but that's irrelevant for now i suppose
