Intercooling Options

**02bluegtss** · 10-29-2010

bedwards,

i have the ssic setup from zzp with a stage 3 fmhe, i have yet to install it as i want everything to be figured out before i do. it is my daily driver.

so far from what i can see, the only clearance issue is where zzp puts the fpr on the ssm90 fuel logs (the front log) and the fuel line already is rubbing on my hood brace. the fix as far as i can see would be to move the fpr to the back log which would allow for clearance (this is how zzp non ssm90 fuel logs come)

the other thing would be belt size obviously cause your moving the pulley up.

for the actual functionality, its going to depend on how hardcore you want to go with your car.

as for the "i can touch the s/c after 20 wot runs" i dont understand how this is possible as the intercooler is cooling the air after the s/c. so logically the s/c is still drawing in ambient temperature air.

Thanks for the reply. On my SS M90, the FPR is on the back logs. I have a feeling the clearance issue would be that the FPR being raised up 2.5" would cause it to hit the hood. I'm curious if IRC would make a core to match the size on the SSIC, but use the better material (superior to ZZP's) to prevent heat soak.

Your fuel line will be tight to on the blower when you install the SSIC after you put the log with the fpr on the rear bank. i just put some pipe wrap around where it was touching the snout slightly

My fuel log with the FPR is already on the rear log. Is that not correct?
