You may have issues with that intercooler if you plan to use a factory hood latch.

Most guys with an F-body run an intercooler very similar to this:
http://www.treadstoneperformance.com...cooler++1000HP

It's a 4.5" thick core, 12" tall, and fits well in front of the core support. Supposedly it flows over 1400cfm, but who knows how accurate that is. I'm running a cheap ebay intercooler, and thought about picking this one up as a good inexpensive replacement.

I was looking at the Treadstone intercoolers as well.

Which one would you guys recommend for a twin turbo setup for 1000 RWHP?

I have the tr1245 on my car and works well. My tuner said my iat's didn't climb very much on the dyno (no specific as he was mid tune). Until I can log specific data myself I can't say but I do know it's a very quality cooler and my tuner never mentioned anything about my iat's climbing so to me no word is a good word, lol.

I've got a vertical flow Treadstone (TRV25) with a 6 inch tall core and I see only a 30 degree rise through the 1/8.
