Not sure if anyone's told you this... but you need a turbo at one end with other end going to the intake... :lol:

Na, looks sweet. I'll be starting to buy parts in about a year I think.

*pictures CT at wakefield on short circuit with turbo and C-Drives* :twisted:

Gasweld - it's OK and light. Saves my back when lifting it in and out of cars!

Looks like a nice size for the MX5. Where did you get it and how much CT?

Why aren't you using the stock SE intercooler???

www.justjap.com

Bargain $149. They are not pretty and they don't have any deflectors to direct air on the inlet side, but it's not very high at 180mm so I think the air will work it out. Considering it's at the front of a race car, it may turn into a consumable item so the value is most important.

There is a 140mm high one too which fits perfectly into the nose but I think this one at 180mm will be fine with some \"trimming\".

The SE one might be turned into an oil cooler!!!! joking really :mrgreen:

Thanks CT. Robert is looking for one for the Money Pit. We went to Just Jap for a look last year but they only had larger ones at that stage. The guy said they were getting some different sizes in but Robert never went back to look.

Just Jap also sell on ebay. They have a few the same as CT's one and also some at the 140mm height that he referred to as well.

Both are the same price at $99 plus $20 delivery.
Click here for same as CT's.
Click Here for the 140mm version.

Enjoy!

so do i understand this correctly. CT you are going FI on your NB8B as well as building a SE race car?

Just the SE Stan - no point trying harder for divorce than I already am! As for the Ebay price, it's worth going and selecting the one you want. Not all of them were as straight as the one I got and them being 5 minutes from my place - made it a sensible choice IMO.
