I had no idea he was making these, interesting. Looks like it has a removable/replacable core too. I like out the hoses enter/exit on drivers side. Very nice work of art.

I'm one of the under 10 (last I heard around 7) with a PRJ recored MAP IC and it has worked flawlessly for several years. Heres a few pics of mine before I installed it...









I'd leave the core as is if I were you. If anything, polish it some more.

I'm sure PRJ already said this, run a good reservior and pump setup and your IC will give you years of trouble free use...

I already have the GM IC pump, I'm looking for a resevoir right now. I like the cobra one, but I may just build/fab one up.

Here's any idea for a reservior, I used a Magnacharger Intercooler Reservior. It has a pressure cap (10 psi) and the barbs are 3/4". Perfect solution for your ICing need. All you have to do is remove your coolant catch can and install a smaller one elsewhere. And make a bracket like I did w/ stainless hardware.

Here are some pics...









Finished product...







My new catch can, polished aluminum...





Hope this helps...

Edit: Curious what that weighs as well...

9 lbs 9 oz

The cores not replacable while its in the car. The core is welded to the removable plate and uses o-rings to seal where the inlet and outlet leaves the core.

Their is way less of a possibility of having a vac leak because theirs really only 4 small spots for that to really occur. This design also allows you to maximize the core thickness while packaging into 2.125 inch plate. The core is thicker than this because it drops into the intake manifold.

I remember seeing that setup. Didn't you buy that on ebay? What vehicle was that resevoir designed for, or would you happen to know if their was a part number on that resevoir.
