Speedriven c32,SLK32 and crossfire upgraded intercooler
As the title states this is our 32 intercooler. We sold them for awile now to the crossfire guys and have had great results. The link for crossfire guys http://www.crossfireforum.org/forum/...-got-real.html
This is a direct plug and play setup. No more buying those oem intercoolers and praying for them not to leak. Not only is this setup less expensive then oem, its an overall better performing intercooler!

How about a top mounted intercoolers? One on each side. Something like this?
It's too hot under the supercharger plus this design has more cooling capacity. But regardless, your OEM replacement looks super.

In regards to top mount we might look into those, just for the hardcore want to go fast guys. the reason we designed stock replacement ... well its just that, a improved stock replacement.

As someone who has already replaced the OEM unit with another OEM unit, I wish these were available back then. I followed the R&D on this unit, and it's top-notch.
I appreciate you guys continuing to support our dated platform.
All the best,

I wish these were available earlier too. I replaced a leaking OEM with a thermal coated OEM intercooler. I'd have to see how much the top mount lowers IAT's and what happens to the power before considering them. I'd buy them if they showed good results.

Received a few Pm's in regards to production time. So the answer is...5-10 buisness days after payment is made. All intercoolers are made upon order. Thx guys for the interest

Using the SD intercooler with an upgraded heat exchanger yields a much faster recovery time on the coolant temps... greater delta.
More details here.

OEM cooler is a multi-pass unit, this is a single-pass and is more efficient at cooling the air charge. Also, the construction method of the SD intercooler is superior to that of the Garrett units, meaning no leaks.

Quoted from the builder:
Single pass all the way. Only reason the multi pass is in there is because the OE pump couldn't move fluid through the circuit fast enough so you try to get it to spend more time in the there taking as much heat out as possible. Also remember that it originally was tied in with the engine cooling circuit so the objective was keeping the temp under 160 and having an easily maintained system vs what we are trying to do now and that is to get the intake charge as low as we can.

The Ford motors use a different blower (Eaton) vs Lysholm type that we use... Plumbing is different as well.

SLK32 & C32 rigid upper strut braces
Will after checking ever where and being unable to buy a set (front & rear) of rigid upper strut braces I've found someone to make me some. So if your looking for something to really make your handling better here is the information for you: ask for Mike Shear at Snyder Steel (321) 453-2353
Also, If your looking for headers for your C32 I've talked to Philip Bulderbergs at Eurocharged ((713) 462-1600 and they will be ordering them shortly so get in on the deal while they are there. As for us SLK32 guys, the only way we are going to get our headers, that won't cost us an arm and both legs, is by me taking my 2003 to Houston TX so they can do a fit check. If your interest please don't call me I'm in Florida, call and ask Phil now because I'm sure this will be a limited deal.
If you do have question feel free to let me know.
