Try to redesign your piping so it can enter your intercooler from the side, if possible angled upwards. That would be way way waaaay better then the current design.

It looks like you have the space to do that.

I've noticed a few of you with electric cooling fans. Would you guys share your installation details? I'm thinking about going that route.

Thx Im still building up the engine.
Currently Im adding some heatshields to turbo, downpipe, exhaust etc (pictures are a few weeks old)
Its a selfmade bridge with a EFR 8374 IWG.
Selfmade supershort manifold:




Here is a short vid from the first run with the EFR:
(spools incredible fast)

Im going for track racing, so hp aims are quite low, not been on a dyno yet.
Still going low boost, need to get that boost solenoid connected to the haltech...

edit: oh to HDP, ive got a FD N-flow Koyo with dual spals (the flat ones)

Would anyone be able to give me an estimate of how much horsepower to the wheels I'm getting?
Our current mods are:
- 89 13b n/a with 800 - 1000 miles on the rebuild (stock ports)
- 2.5 inch exhaust from the stock headers all the way back to a true dual exhaust
- foam cone filter
- fresh tune-up using NGK laser platinum spark plugs (all-trailing)
- all emissions have been removed as you can see in pics
- new OEM clutch installed w/ rebuild
- OEM 4.1 open diff

The car feels pretty good and pulls hard

CA If it ain't broke, don't fix it
...but a lot broke. 1989 TII w/ Haltech P2k: water injection & cruise control, HKS edition. After a lifetime of pain, it's finally done (well until next week)...with working AC even.

Thanks. I steam cleaned and pressure washed the engine. Replaced all coolant and heater hoses with the aftermarket hoses. As for the intake tube, i cleaned it with degreaser and respayed it. It was like a nasty brown before lol i couldnt stand it.

Inspires me to go in and clean mine again. I want to remove all the little discolored metal brackets and spray them flat black.

Here's my stock bay
