I was highly disappointed today when I tried to use my 7.3psd intercooler and it was too narrow to fit around the radiator. So I improvised and flipped a 2nd gen dodge one and it fit. But now I will have to modify my hood latch because the hood latch hits the intercooler.
I got the water inlet almost done too.
I still have to make the oil returns, install the oil feed lines, build a support bracket for the primary turbo, weld all the piping, and build an air inlet for the primary turbo. I also have to build a down pipe and fit the exhaust. It's going to be tight! It's coming together.
Man-at-Keyboard says: "inter turbo piping no good. If one has room for LTA inter-turbo cooler, one must install such."
Hate me yet?
