[urq] Intercooler

[Jack Walker]

Hi Guys,

 

On the Intercooler;

I'm already headed towards the 944T Intercooler, bought one for $180
(+-), the mods to the end-tanks shouldn't cost more than $100 so it's a
pretty cheap intermediate step from the stock UrQ one to the 2B one Rich
has. I'm already planning on moving the Alternator and trying to place
the AC on the driver side, using something like the 2B Alt-A/C mount.

 

Rich, the 2B Intercooler you have, is it as shown in the UrQ portion of
their site? 

I was talking with Ken at 2B and he mentioned they have made a new one
that is used on Treadway's CQ car that is substantially larger than what
they used to make. It also can be made to fit for the UrQ. Go onto their
site, go to the 200 link and at the top of the page there is a link to
this new intercooler. Now this is definitely going to have to have a
cross back or over, or whatever ya call the tube like on the S4/6s  You
can see it under the IC. As I was talking to Phil Ackley in DC he
mentioned that the this IC is a knock off of the RS2, looks like the
Turbo inlet is on the driver side on the bottom and the PP side is on
the passenger side at the top.

Now at $1975 it's pretty costly, and would definitely require something
like the SQ front bumper and grille to fit over it, and then the SQ hood
rather than the 4000 SQ replica to make it look like the thing all works
together...Plus some mods to the front to hold the darn thing. But man
that thing is huge!

 

Is there a possibility that an Intercooler can have the in and out on
the same end of the tanks? I don't have a clue?

There is a remote possibility I'd go to a Driver's side IM, if there was
I would just go back to my AAN and angle the darn Rad.?
