Default new intercooler for my JWT

I am looking at 2 options right now. The reason I want to get a new IC is to allow more room for an oil cooler to mount and allow for better air flow to the radiator.

I will also be switching the front to the C-west N1 bumper.


Option #1: Have Tim at Speed Force Racing build me a new intercooler and custom make the piping.

Option #2: Purchase a premade IC like this one and have Tim do custom mounting brackets and piping. http://www.treadstoneperformance.com...2C+GM%2C+Viper



I just want to hear what some of you guys think of both these options.




oh and yes, I still have my car for sale. I just figure as long as I am driving it I am going to mod it hahaha

Veritical flow, and looks very straightforward to adapt to the JWT. I say go for it!

Honestly I would have Tim do the new intercooler for you. Sure that intercooler looks like it would work well but once you get it it might not be exactly what you need. If you have Tim build the intercooler for you he can make it EXACTLY to the specs you want. Tim is the way to go IMHO...

the Greddy would require to much custom piping IMO

I bought tim's intercooler setup for the G. I mated it up to my Greddy Twin kit. My IATs are very low, and I am happy with his work!

The treadstone one works, but the core is pretty small compared to tim's version....
