i want to do a diy fmic setup, i don't even know which core to get.
i want to have my fog lights and not overheat, and i want my a/c even if it doesn't work the best. what core would you guys suggest? also i want the intercooler "bars" to be horizontal, cuz i think the virtical ones look ugly and less efficiant.

and my biggest thing is i would like to see the piping setup, for a horizonal bar core with end tanks on oposite ends.

sorry i seem to be picky, and i did a search in the tech articals but didn't find anything but the one with the virtical bars and the endtanks had the pipe on the same side.
 
Sounds like you want an intercooler with side to side flow (horizontal). How much are you looking to spend, and what turbo will you be running?

I can't tell you the exact measurements of a core that will let you retain the fog lights. You'll have to just go to your car, make some measurements, and decide what you think is the largest core you can fit in there and still keep the fog lights. Then just hop on Ebay and pick up a core with those measurements. I got my core for 300 shipped. It's 24x10x3 bar and plate. I might not be able to keep my stock fog lights, but that's not a huge concern of mine. I also don't have any pictures to help you, but running the piping isn't difficult. Just look under the car and picture how it needs to be. It's simple. Sorry I can't help you more.

i want enough for 400 hp, i want my a/c, no overheating, and horizontal type core.

The one that i posted up there is for sale and as you can see, allows you to retain your foglights. I have has NO problems w/ overheating w/ A/C and an OEM radiator. It flows 700cfm which is enough to support 500hp. PM me and maybe we can work out a deal.
