ice vex sells nice FMIC that are much larger and not too $$. too big and you have to get rid of your bumper brace.

If you wanna spend money, TurboXS and all the other turbo companies sell big FMIC.

Here are some pics of the FMIC we built for our 350. It is by FAR the largest available. 5" thick and good for 1500 HP!! We can build you anything that you want!!

Go to Bell intercoolers. They have the largest selection of cores and any endtank setup you could imagine. Got mine there and we get out 928 intercoolers there. Customer support is top notch also!

Here you go:

if you go too big won't that cause a PSI drop? especially since most vortech owners are pushing 6-9lbs.

All the intercoolers from that site are the exact same ones found on ebay for cheaper. That site is pretty much an ebay store, just with higher prices.

I was saying that you can get those on ebay for cheaper then that site sells them for. I actually think some of the ebay intercoolers are of pretty damn good quality. Thats why I bought one.

Anyone know roughly what CFM we are pushing around 400-500 hp?

Rough guess would be fantastic

Sorry...I took your statement the wrong way . I got my IceVex for cheaper from a IceVex dealer .
