I have deleted the factory water to air intercooler set up due to a bad pump, I am going to install an air to air set up, I was wondering if anyone has any pictures of a finished install.
I must be able to keep the a/c operational, i live in vegas and drive almost everyday. Thanks. Robb

Re: FMIC pics needed please.

i have some ill get up later.. just put it in last week W/AC and all

edit. heres the pics, went with the ebay core, the 3 inch thick one, with a pipe, kit.
couple things, i left about a finger width between the core and the a/c , it cools it great with a taurus 2 speed fan, the pipes were close to the crank pulley but will work. I had to notch the latch frame to fit. ditched the PS cooler and reloated trans cooler to underside of frame behind driver seat with a fan. i cleaned up and edged the steel with some vac line so it was a bit nicer. i had to trim the bottom corner edges of the grill to fit the core, it looks nice and is not even noticable.

weight- 40 lbs of water to air stuff, and 20 lbs of are to air, so about a 20 lb loss of weight, which i like.

Re: FMIC pics needed please.

Thanks TYTILIDIE. Some of it was done by the original owner but I have done a lot of work to keep it look as good as he did if I made any changes like the A2A.

I am going to the Turbo Thunder Event in July so I should hopefully have some numbers then. I still have a lot of tuning to do and get it to pass emissions. It fails the idle part. Tried all kinds of things and it just barely fails. Have a few more things to try to get it to pass.

Don't expect the world out of it. It is a stock motor (heads, cam, pistons, rods, etc.) I am hoping I can get it in the mid to low 12's if I am lucky. But since I haven't ran it yet I am thinking high 12's is all I will get out of it until I get kinks worked out. (Tranny tuning, Wastegate adjustment, methanol tuning, etc...)
