Thread: Intercooler information needed.

I got this intercooler and was wondering if anyone knows anything about it. I've never seen one like it so I don't really know anything at all about it.

dont know but if you dont want it i will take it off your hands

that core looks trashed.

That's Billy Bob's intercooler. He made it in his back yard behind the trailer with the old Bridgeprot.

Yee Haw!!!

where did you find this thing?

I would be sketchy about putting that on a car...

id try and run it

fill it with water, if it doesnt leak then you are good to go.

it looks like an old map engineering one, possibly a thrasher or prj one. throw it up on clubgp, prj will know im sure.

so just pour water in it and see if it holds and it's good? It is an old one at least a few years old and the core looks tons better in real life.

Dip it into a bucket of water and then remove it and look to see if the core leaks or not.

if the tubes are the same size as the heater core, you could take the hoses off your car and run them to the new core, that will tell you if it leaks.

That is a really good idea. I would hate for it to leak into my motor.

Has anyone heard of this new thing called "pressure testing"?

All you need is compressed air, some fittings, a gauge and a ball valve.

If it leaks there's this other really new thing called "snoop".

It's just water with a surfactant in it like dish washing detergent.

You spray it all over and where it bubbles, voilÃ*! You found the leak.

I know, I'm a genius. No need for compliments.

Did you get the modified LIM that you need to go with it?

Rico your a genius!

Filling it with water and looking for water falling out, sounds easier...lol

Does anyone have any ideas as to the make? Or can someone post pics on clubgp? Thanks.
