Whats a good intercooler
Im looking for a good 3" intercooler, front mount, that will fit in a stock bumper fairly well. I dont mind having to make custom mounts or anything like that, i just want generic dimensions and maybe a brand name. Its going to be my first purchase to my t3/t4 turbo setup. Thanks its greatly appretiated.
Btw, try to keep it under $150

I would recommend this one size wise - can't vouch for the quality though .
A 4" is a better bet IMO because to get the same flow from a 3" you need a 11-12" deep one . Tests i've done show this is a really bad move as it decreases air flow to the rad. increasing the chances of overheating . Don't block the bottom 3-4" of air flow no mater how much you want the 'rice effect' .
Mount it up high and remove diamonds out of the stock grill to get air flowing through it .
