After looking at pix of 3sgte swamps most ppl have trouble running the pipe to a fmic cus of where the exhaust manifold is.
I was thinking y not just use two rather long but short incoolers. but one on top of the other and run the piping through one and out the other kinda like a but U. This seems like a simple solution to a problem. Ive never seen this dun so there must be a reason y not. Cost? airflow restiction? basically it would look like this (front vew) |----INTERCOOLER1---(outlet to intake manifold) | |----INTERCOOLER2----(inlet from tubo) | and - are piping |

They arent efficient. Audi 5kqt had a similar design and it sucked.
A single core with inlet on one side, outlet on the other and tapered endtaks is closer to ideal for flow and pressure drop. What the big prob with putting a regular FMIC in a 3s swap? This post has been edited by Fox-N-It2: Dec 13, 2004 - 6:39 PM |
