slownrusty Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 The Supra IC is garbage....I strongly suggest not using it. If you are going to such great efforts of plumbing an IC, and trust me it takes LOTS of work, I recommed going to a much more efficient IC. Look on eBay, there are some great deals. At best you can sell the Supra IC for $50-$100 and put that towards a decent IC. Otherwise you have a pretty stout set-up, that will make some good hp depending on how much bost you want to run.

SleeperZ Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 You'd definitely get more selling the individual parts. I'd check out eBay to price some of the easy to ship go-fast items and maybe you can find a local buyer for the engine and tranny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yo2001 Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 I wouldn't say supra IC is crap. But can't beat aftermarket IC for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug71zt Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 I ran a 13.2 at 103 with a supra IC and a stock turbo. It will get you up and running cheaper than a $600 custom unit. But I've knocked a second off of that with a hybrid turbo and a Corky bell intercooler. Oh yea, bigger injectors, 3" Dp and exhaust, 2.5" IC piping, bigger injectors....etc,etc,etc. Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afshin Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 The mach III (87-92) supra intercooler is highly restrictive, specially as you increase boost. In one tech article they showed at 3 psi boost drop at about 10 psi. Meaning that as the turbo put out 10psi into the intercooler, 7 come out. As such it is not a desirable unit. The psi drop will even be greater at higher boost. Off course it is much better than having no intercooler, but as already mentioned, since all the work is in the plumbing, why not start with a isuzu npr or mach IV (93-98 ) supra intercooler which are fantanstic stock intercoolers (ebay cost $150-180) and can be had much cheaper than an spearco, hks or other reputable aftermarket intercooler.

fl327 Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 One thing the mk3 ic has going for it is the piping fits very well in a turbo z configuration. For those already running one I would look into the bolt in aftermarket intercoolers that they make for those cars, you would pick up a lot more efficiency and a little mroe power that gets to be more efficient and more powerful as you upgrade your setup. The tt intercooler is awesome as it cools down 320hp in stock form and its known to be good (maybe not the best) for bpu supras putting down nearly 400 at the wheels, it will suit a turbo z very well and takes up about 30% of the available air stream of the radiator, the stock cooling system will work better like that. Just thoughts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
