Got it from a local Mustang guy, but you can get the exact one on ebay, for not much more than I paid for this.


why did you choosed the air to air over the water to air intercooler?

Only reazon i ask i because i am still not sure which one to used...:shrug:

the air to air one seems to be more money friendly i think, but how does it compare vs. the water to air? performance wise...

thanks!
Jean.

Very dependent on the actual use of the car.

There are pros and cons for both air-air and air-water.

I chose air-air because this car will be much more of a weekend warrior/fun car than a dedicated drag or track car.

My car is also kind of a weekend warrior well actually i use it to commute to work most of the week:dribble:

I can't help it:cry:

anyways i am not really that attractive to all the track or drag events for some reason. On your opinion do you think air to air would be ok on a almost everyday drive car. I do want to upgraded to 15psi pulley soon though! Anybody?!:shrug:

yes, actually I am
please please please tell me this is true... and you're doing it in tandem with the turbocharger... that would be incredible, supercharger to spool the turbo/ get rid of turbo lag, then turbocharger for the top end. ah if only i was not a college student soon to be in thousands of dollars of medical school-related debt.

Less expensive, easier to plumb, lighter weight. The only reason to use an air/water is for getting a super cool charge, since you can use ice water. But after a pass down the track your ice is melted and the water is the same temp (or warmer) than the ambient air. For a track car (road course) there are no benefits of an air/water. Also, you can spray nitrous on an air/air, which will give you the same benefits as icing your water on an air/water. And one bottle of nitrous will last a LOT longer at the drag strip than a bag of ice. Unless you plan on going to the dragstrip a lot, I would recommend an air/air.

thanks Tim, what about i heard Josh complaining about the air to air blocking the radiator not being good for the car, what do you think about that?
