I have my old 'cooler here, but we were going with a newer design.

No... a little over a year ago. I'm sure I paid a lot less than most people did for my intercooler as well. Did I go 9s yet? Nope. Did I go over 140 mph yet? Nope. Kinda hard to do that with a 4.11 gear and 26 inch tall tires and only a few runs. I know I don't have as many excuses as you do, but I have a 3.50 gear ready to go in... so don't you worry, banana boy, I'll get in the 9s since I know it must be on your mind all of the time. Come to think of it, it seems like you are concerned with a lot of people not going 9s at 14x mph. I know that I can speak for everyone when I say that we appreciate your heartfelt concern.

Did you have your car out last weekend? Man... it was nice to drive my car 90 miles on Saturday.

You should call FLP and have them get an intercooler made for you. It's done locally too. Just in case you forgot FLP's number... 630-820-9294 or heck... let them pay for the call... 877-FLP-2-WIN. Ask for Dan Bills.

Coming from a man that has over 27,000 posts on this board alone.

As a matter of fact, I told you to send Vinny and Guido over there and I suggested that you contact FLP to have an intercooler made for you. Heck... you can even call Precision Turbo to have an intercooler made for you too.

Prostocky John is snapping his fingers, and nothing is getting done? Maybe the name PSJ doesn't carry weight in the real world as it does on Emails and message boards

Why even **** with Griffin if its already been this long? If Bell is saying they can build one in a week...what's the decision here? Is Griffin that much cheaper, really?

You guys like 12 or something?

I talked to Ron @ Griffin, he replaced Scotty 6 weeks ago. He's looking into it for me.

If it helps at all to know, my senior project as a mechanical engineering student was to build an FSAE race car. (www.fsae.com) We ordered a custom radiator for the car from Griffin in JANUARY. We just recently received it about 2 weeks ago...

lol mine is due tomorrow as well! Did a turbocharged dune buggy project pretty sweet. Thought about FSAE but decided to do something that I could have a lot more control over. Nothing against FSAE, just very compartmentalized.
