Intercoolers- those johnnyracer ICs suck big time. Look at their internal cross sections... I measured one that a friend had and it came out to the equivalent of a 1.7" pipe! Not only that, but they're so goddamn long. Oh sure, they fill the grill, but they're show pieces with next to no functionality. Yes, in some cases, an intercooler is worse than none at all, and this is one. You want a good IC that flows well for cheap? MX-6/ Probe GT IC or one from a Cougar XR-7.

well i can answer the tuneing question basically tuning means if your going to run hondata or any managment system like that you need to get it tuned by a speacialized tuner in that type of tuning and a good one so your ecu is send right codes and what ever else like that ,
That was the biggest bunch of crap I have ever heard. You need to take your own advice and stop posting. Those johnnyracecar intercoolers are about the best intercoolers you can get if your on a budget (this guy is) so that would be the best choice for him. They work perfectly fine and do the job well. I am currently running the 5 inch tall intercooler and it flows very well. My buddy was using a 6 inch tall johnnyracecar intercooler on his 302whp turbo b20/vtec CRX and ran 12.03 in the 1/4 mile and it worked just fine. He also has a custom johnnyracecar intercooler made for his built ls/vtec.
i think reckedracing is thinking about a internal wastegate, not a internal bypass valve.

if you're on a budget the BEST way to go is with a junkyard intercooler... wtf are you talking about mate?

Oh and go to www.jcwhitney.com for your intercooler piping. You can get mandrel bends pretty cheap from there.

I hate it when people get all technical about shit when it doesn't need to be.
