Let's play a game...

I call it - ' Name That Intercooler '

See, I got the intercooler with the 14B turbo for fixing a guy's computer - but I had assumed it was a stock DSM intercooler - after looking at a couple online, I can safely say it isn't. So does anyone recognize it?

[Doward]

Little info... the core is 2.75" thick, 10.25" tank to tank (the core itself) and 7 1/8" tall... I need to find another core with those dimensions...

[akiegsx]

It looks like an Isuzu Impulse intercooler. I used to have that same intercooler on a Hyunday Scoupe back in the early days.:D

[Rob Harfman]

I'm with Akie on this. Looks like a turbo impulse piece to me.

[Doward]

Hmm... ok... now where the heck to find another?

[ScrappyJack]

Don't? Just go buy two DSM intercoolers which are more readily available and can probably be had for $50 a pop? :)

[Doward]

Yeah, but... I've already got this one! lol. What are the dimensions of the stock core on the dsm intercooler?

[Glenn]

Put that one on ebay and do as (the) Jack said! ;)

[SPEED]

well let me get this straight, youre adding a 14b to youre camaro right???

personally, i wouldnt even bother. id sell everything and buy an eclipse then mod it......anyway you look at it, the eclipse will still be faster... just my .02
later

true

A DSM won't necessarily be faster as an end product but it may prove to be a much better performance value than modding an under-performing 6-cylinder. Junkyard turbo setups on V8s have been known to provide excellent returns for the money invested. I can think of several cars that I would modify before an '88 V6 Camaro.

However, he is not asking for opinions on whether he should or should not continue with his project. He's asking a specific question about an intercooler.

DSM side-mount intercoolers are going to have dimensions comparable to the one you posted pics of.

[Doward]

Yeah, I wasn't asking whether or not it was worthwhile, lol! I paid $500 for the car, $300 into the turbo setup, and outran a $15k '95 Mustang GT that does a known 14.7. Since, I've upgraded to a 3.1, new cam, ported heads, and now a 16G. I'm aiming for mid 13s with the new setup - all for under $2000. Sorry, I'm happy with 13s for $2k ;)

Mr Thorsen, the problem I ran into, is that the DSM intercooler is actually thicker than the Impulse intercooler I have... I'll keep working on it!

[ECLIPSERST]

Just my .02, I think that the project is awsome, I have never heard of anyone doing that. Keep us posted. If you ever head over this way for the track let me know I would love to see that setup.
