what is the biggest intercooler fitted to a VR4?

@MarkSanne do you have a link where we can buy that intercooler? I'd like to add that to the tuning guide you commented on yesterday

It's a CXracing intercooler from the US for 1G Eclipse. My main goal was to fill the complete bumper mesh part with truly IC radiator, without the side tanks. However, the IC hose connectors were located on the front (or back) side instead of the sides. I cut out the connectors and the brother of a friend pro welded them on the sides. So it's anything but plug and play. The thing itself was only 250 dollar but import tax plus welding makes it an expensive 'option'. I went for completely stealth looks with max cooling capacity...

This is the one I have fitted on mine. Not my pics tho.
Here's the specs on it.

And yes the crash bar needs to be cut for it to fit.

Oh I see what you mean now, wowww some welding skills needed there!

[MarkSanne]

yeah for sure, that dude knows how to weld alu

I did the chopping trying to minimize the loss of original material and have the holes identical so the would fit perfectly, also from this inside.
