2G holy intercooler! 6inches thick $170

[TheFlashDSM]

i found this 20miles away from me! anybody think this would work for a 1000hp? its a 45 inch edge to edge at 6 inches thick, 45inches will make the turbo intake and exhaust pipe go on either side of the lower rad support. i might buy this any thoughts?

By the description, it sounds like the core alone is 45 inches not including the tanks, so that's probably gonna be hard to fit under a 2g bumper.
Either way, that's way bigger than you need. A 26x12x4 core should be good for 1000hp, anything much bigger than that and you're just adding unnecessary weight.
Since your build is for a drag only car, you'd probably be better off with a water/air intercooler vs air/air. Something to look in to.

To answer your question, yes I think it would work for 1000hp.

For it to work for 1000hp on a 2g though you could never have a front bumper and the IC piping would have to be routed through the wheel wells. The VRSF core is 28.5" long and the front bumper barely wraps around that, this one is 45" and 2.5" thicker...

If you're still considering it walk out to your car with the tape measure at 45" and center it on the radiator support.

^Agreed.

Or, a hotpipe and go to a true drag fuel like methanol. Most guys making that kind of power are't driving these things on the street.

it looked like a good deal! i figured it wouldn't work, but for the price, dam and im using methanol for the drag car too. going intercooler for a low boost 93 around the street and meth for full boost

I've been DD'ing a W/A intercooler for a long time now in Texas heat (100+ degrees). It's not just for a drag car.
