2 intercooler questions

I have 2 questions about intercoolers.
1. has anyone tried to use a 4row intercooler from a supra on a 7. will it fit on there.
2. I am planing on going single in a little bit, that is turbo, but i dont wanna buy a little intercooler for my stock twins and then sell that one to get a 3/4 row intercooler for the single. so i can i run a 3/4 row on stock twins. what would be the problem. my guess is presure loss.
thanks Marc

I've seen the Big Greddy IC run with stock twins. They say pressure drop, but none that I've seen.

I run a big Feed FMIC on the stock twins. 4" thick core. No problems on my end.

What's up Bryan?

I have only seen the knightSports V-Mount and the Panspeed V-Mount, not the Feed V-Mount. I just run a Feed FMIC with STOCK radiator....but with my PFC and datalogit, my fans kick on 20 degrees sooner. And since I don't have A/C, I can turn my fans on with a couple of clicks. I have actually gotten my water temps to go down so low that they "close" the thermostat.

I'm still waiting for my radiator from RX-7 Store. I've been waiting a long time

Hi

Jspecracer gave you tips.

mmonaco, I'm wondering 4row IC from Supra?
It's not a stock one, because 4row.
It's aftermarket one.
The piping sets are quite different.
If you can buy them at the very low cost,
labor cost for fitting can be very high.

Nothing wrong with having a thick i.e. 4 row IC. Just be sure that it's not LONG too. Then you'll have big pressure drops.

I ordered the Koyo. I'm not going to mention how long I've been waiting...but it's been A LONG TIME. If you want to know...PM me and I'll spill the beans, but I'd prefer not to bring Jason's name in this.

I'm fine as is. The only thing I am dreading is all the labor! I have heard it is easier to do it from the bottom...
