IC from 93+ supra on a FD?

Is this possible in either the stock location or front mount?

I've been told that these are pretty good intercoolers and that in a supra there is very little advantage to upgrading. One of these can also be picked up used for $100-$200.

they are good untill about 19 or 20 PSI, compared to the limit of the stock IC's 12. its worth a try! but i dont think it will be that easy.

ahh our stock turbos are not good past 14...for long anyways..not like out stock fuel system can handle it for long either..I agree might not be worth the trouble to get the piping..etc

when i said 19 or 20 PSI, i was talking about the amount of boost when the stock supra's IC starts to loose its efficiency. the stock FD IC starts getting inefficient at around 11 or 12 PSI.

sorry, i should have been more clear about that.

Did anyone ever find an answer to this? And as for stock efficiency, is that even a word you should use in the same sentence?
