Just an idea... Maybe lame? But I'm always thinking no matter the platform..

I don't know near enough as rest of you on Supercharged cooling, but would the ZR1 Vette Top Mounted cooler be a design worth looking into? Possibly even retrofitting as it sits ontop of the larger TVS blower w/very tight underhood tollerences..

Great job to the OP, good luck with the new IC, lets see some data logs/dyno pulls once that bad boys installed
I don't see how it's irrelevant and/or childish. EvoSport pretty much trolled the forum. I actually congratulated the OP on his project so I don't understand what got you upset. All I did was point out that EvoSport are useless trolls. I'm not gonna bump that stupid thread again just to bash them. Let it die just like I hope their company does

To me the Jag XKR are a decent place to start looking for a possible donor setup for top mounts. This looks like the next best alternative well done!

Sorry for the wait guys, The orginal plan was to test the IC on my car. But I decided to test it on another car that would benefit more from a upgraded IC. When my guy doing the test get some results I will share it. At this point we are looking at the end of the week.

Well I was the guy that was going to do the testing and from the looks of it got ripped off. I traded some new parts plus cash for this and the night before Jerry came to dyno Ahmad and I TRIED to install this but it was far from even close to fitting. Now after being told I would be refunded monday its not looking good. Hopefully I was the only one to get screwed over. NEVER pay anyone without using PayPal or send parts for something you don't even know will work or not.

The intercooler is too wide and too deep and will not fit into the valley of the engine. Now the guy is giving me the run around for not refunding me blah blah blah. Wouldn't take PayPal payment and I was dumb enough to send money order after I had a bad feeling about it. I've contacted his local police and was told I had to give another week for refund until I can go further.

That stinks and I hope you get your money back. In any event I'll be sending you a PM since there might be a way to still fit it.

I was initially going to take the unit back and give u a refund but you have proven to me you are less than honorable. There is so much more to this story, that im not in the mood to discuss right now...tomorrrow is another day.

Maybe you should of looked further into that. He got everything and we had no problems. I was in the middle of a major job and had my gall bladder taken out. Maybe I should post all the text you sent me about how you don't take PayPal and you will refund me and now the excuses that you won't. I've bought and sold lots of things on here and have proven I'm an honest up front person. I sent you new injectors and connectors plus a money order for $450 in good faith that this intercooler worked and fit and it didn't. All I want is my money back and the amount we agreed on was $862. As soon as I get my money back you will get your intercooler. I told you to send the money with Jody and I would give him the intercooler at the track but that didn't happen.

That thread doesn't say much of what happened. But I've dealt with Steve and everything worked out fine. Just saying.

This should be very complicated, if it doesn't fit then just refund the money and he'll give you back the intercooler. It's not hard.
