I have an piggy with an rb20, it got it in a trade, and the previous own is running an intercooler with the hot and the cold pipes on the same side of the intercooler..

im wanting to get rid of it and run a basic intercooler were the hot and cold pipes are on diffrent sides of the intercooler.. the only problem with this is that im running the stock 20 intake manifold, and the way it is setup leaves me wondering what to do.

im wondering what others are using as intercooler setups..

Heres is a not so current one of my setup. Hope it helps .

toss a sidemount intercooler back on there for a little bit until the intake mani comes thru...no sense in wasting time and materials on a setup you're gonna ditch anyways.
