Choosing the right intercooler Plans for this spring include a 408 and a D1SC......Plan on going to an F1 later this summer so i am gonna go ahead and switch to a FMIC while the car is down...I was just wondering what size intercooler I need and what fits nicely on the f body....Also where to get one...I know EPP has a nice setup but i would like to do somewhat of my own and save some cash....thanks
Bob carries a complete FMIC kit for a nice price.
You could save a little bit of money if you want to fab it up yourself. Check eBay for the 31x12x4 intercooler. Thing fits PERFECT. Actually, if I had money, I probably would've custom-ordered something a tad bit longer (maybe like a 34-36" long), but this was the biggest "universal" one that I found.

I got a 24x12x4 ebay intercooler (actual dimension is 31" if you include the end caps, but the core is 24"). Probably not the best quality on the market, but for $130 I'm gonna give it a try! Also getting all my silicone couplers and t-bolt clamps from siliconeintakes.com. Not the cheapest stuff in the world, but it is the quality 4 ply material.
