Exclamation Universal Front Mount Intercooler: Anyone Running It?!?

Hi,

So, I just purchased a car and it came with a Universal Front Mount Intercooler. It looks to be about half the size of the Greddy FMIC I used to have. I'm just wondering whether anyone is running one of these and whether they can comment on quality, performance, etc.?


I'm looking to put down around 3xx rwhp on a very small single. I would like to have gone back to stock sequential twins, but everything is removed and I don't even know where to start. I contemplated going non-sequential, but it seems like that may not be the best option for me.


Just wondering whether this thing will hold up for what I plan on doing?!? Any input would be highly appreciated!


Thanks!,
-Rizwan

For that power level I would consider an upgraded stock mount intercooler. Your radiator and A/C will be more efficient/require less upgrades and your intercooler piping will be shorter and less complex.

My IC piping is already fabbed up and I barely use A/C. I can understand about the radiator and do appreciate the comments though.


I also decided to go Non-sequential instead of single now. Any other advice/comments on these IC's? I can post a description/picture of it that I found if people are unfamiliar with the unit...
