What kind of intercooler is this?? PIC INSIDE
I saw this TII intercooler for sale, and was wondering if anyone knew what brand it was and whether or not it would be a worthwhile addition to my TII? From what I can tell it looks like a top-mount intercooler, but bigger. Anyone have any experience with this type of IC? I don't want to go with the hassle/expense of a front mount setup for now, so I thought this might be a good compromise.

Yeah, thats kind of what I was thinking too. its hard to tell how big it is without a car or engine for reference, anyhow, I just wanted to make sure. I've never seen one without the trim and all. OK, so anyone got any other ideas about helping the intercooler efficiency WIYHOUT resorting to a front mount setup? Front mounts are great, but kind of $$$. We put a water spray system on my brother's MR2 that sprays ice water on the intercooler when you hit a switch, and I will probably do that on my TII as well. Besides that, any ideas? Thanks guys!

A Water spray helps, but the top mount location of the stock IC doesnt do very well with this setup.
You would be better off spending ~$400 on a good water/alchole injection system.

A pack of cigarettes or a CD case next to the item in a picture is always good to get an idea of the size. Like in scientific photos from in the field when they put a pencil or a ruler in the photo for reference of size.
