ATTN high HP boys, which FMIC?
like the title says? this will be for 6-700 hp. just want thoughts from people who are actually making this power and what intercooler actually works efficiently. thanks alot!
PWR Liquid-to-air intercooler FTW
Are you looking for an air-to-air unit only? More importantly, is this a street, track or drag car? For a drag car, you don't even need an intercooler if you go with meth injection

i went on a different route which i believe is superior (only if ur running the car on the street)
and quite cheaper than 1800$

Keeping the bumper support and the intercooler is not showing so no police hassle. Of course all these matter if u planning on running it on the street

I built a custom one from a Spearco core. There's some shitty ebay ones but you'd have to be an idiot to get sucked into them. Just pay attention to your area constraints and pick an end-tank design that will make your life easier.
You'll likely come a cross two main types: 1) Bar and plate 2) Tube and fin. Each has their advantages and disadvantages, but that's dependent on your situation. If you want me to discuss it I will but the main point is that bar and plate retains a temperature longer than tube and fin. This can be a good thing and a bad thing...

thanks for all the replies that helped alot. the car will be street and drag for those who asked. im trying to stick with air-to-air. how do you guys do with water temps with above coolers? i live in the south and it gets nice and toasty during the summer! i know the radiator has alot to do with it, but say if i made my own front mount would it be better to keep the stock rad location or make it vertical?
Well I am running a Koyo in the stock location, with a ebay intercooler. My Temps are about 180F (But i am running Evans and a electric water pump)
Here is what my setup looks like




I have a custom made under tray for the intercooler/Rad

Precision Turbo offers a IC that appears made for the FC. It's not too pricey either. They're usually on Ebay. IMO a good way to buy an inexpensive IC without worrying about it's quality. I forget the dimensions but it "looks" a lot like what Rx7_Nut13B posted above. The only difference is that I mounted it with the inlet and outlet at the bottom since the car had the stock oil cooler.
