Default '95 TA A2W intercooler

I am doing a F1 LQ9 conversion on my '95 TA. I was wondering what you guys recommend for an A2W IC. I'm not interested in cutting up my bumper so an A2A isn't for me. I was looking at the frozen boost units and they seem to be ok. Any one running one, and if so do you have pics of your setups? Thanks

Yeah well then you are going to need to stick with Frozen Boost.

There isn't much room up front unless you get the burkhart chassis front bumper support and throw it in there and run the water tank in the back of the car. Another spot it can go is in that little hole underneath the driver side headlight. Mightymouse had it in that spot.

you can run an A2A behind the stock T/A bumper without having to cut it up....mine fits fine and all I did was remove the Fog lights..(well and trimmed the walls down in the fog light holes) wasn't too fond of cutting a big rectangle out of my bumper either..

I thought about doing that but wasn't sure how efficient it would be. What are your IATs, and how much boost?

Here is a vid of Mightymouse water tank.

I'll see if I can find the pic of his intercooler in the front bumper.

Edit: Her is a thread when he changed out the Precision.

Here are some links on here from Modular turbo (Rob) and CBR Performance (Chris Bounds). I know Chris personally since he lives about 20 minutes away from me. He can build anything your brain can come up with.

The T/A in the vid that goes 10.89 is some friends of mine car. That car has a bone stock LS1 in it and the car came in over 4000 lbs with driver with the 4l80e and S60 rear in it
