Guest ON3GO Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 what size is that FMIC? looks badass mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yo2001 Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 It's probably 2x inches since it's longer than what I got. I got a 16inch core length. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHANE Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 core is 24"x11"x3" 2 3/4" inlet and outlet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob_H Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 Mike, Since you seem to have decided on the RB26dett, I have a few questions,(since I am doing this swap myself, engine just came in). First, have you really laid out your budget? It will cost you at least $10k to put that motor in your car. 6k for the motor and tranny alone, if your lucky, 5k. Will this be a drag race only car? That is the ONLY situation where you would want the smallest possible intercooler on a turbocharged motor. Otherwise you want to go as big as you can, with deference to pressure drop etc.. That one pictured I think was a stock GT-R intercooler. I would say that is the smallest you want. When given a choice, go for short tubes over a wide lengths vs long tubes over a small width. (think vertical tubes vs horizontal tubes). Most of your heat transfer is in the first few inches anyway. -Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHANE Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 uhh no my intercooler is not a stock GTR. it is the size of a GTR I/C but it is an xs engineering core. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob_H Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 got it. The end tanks threw me off but I knew the size was right. -Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ON3GO Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 The car would be a street driven daily car. Not a all out drag car. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
