Xr6 Intercooler On R32?

[BenSm]

looking for an intercooler for my R32, and i was considering the coolers that have the same side inlet and out lets. anyone had any experience with these? know where to get any? iv tried to look for them and cant find them, iv even considering buying one off a xr6 turbo? think that might work?

i got one on my r33. pick em up on ebay pretty cheap, try get a typhoon one, they are a bit bigger than the stock xr6 turbo intercooler, will handle up to 300killer wasps. do a search in this forum. a couple of us have fitted them and show pics. im pushing 330rwhp through mine but are no good if you are doing track or constant drag events as they heat soak. for general driving they are great as you don't need to chop the reo in any way to make them fit

killer wasps, hehe. sweet as. they difficult to fit? i might go for a bigger after market rx6 intercooler, because i give the car a fair bit of curry and it gets extremely hot, and it doesnt help when i live in Darwin

if you live in Darwin i wouldn't even bother with the xr6 intercooler and get yourself a 600*300*76 in there otherwise you will loose alot of power with heat soak.

yea, im meaning to buy a 600x300x76 intercooler off boostcruising brand new for $150, but doesnt have the same side intet/out let. and i dont really like the idea of running 6 kilometers of piping before it goes into the engine.

i made my own piping when i had the 600*300 in. made a tight 180 degree elbow from the outlet to a straight piece of pipe just behind the intercooler and made it run up into the factory intercooler holes

thats the most.....GREATEST IDEA EVER!! i never thought of that. awesome Thanks, thats settles it, buying the $150 one off boost you could probably tell i only decided on putting an intercooler on in the last couple of hours so not much thought went into it.

Later models are the same size (typhoon vs non), only the early series have a size difference between the two.

It's not massively different either way
