*This thread was posted by me a long time ago. There are also a couple pics that weren't in the original post. Since having this, ive gone to a tubular t4 set-up, I had to make a new lower intercooler pipe, but everything else is the same.
used the lipp aluminum intercooler piping and the driftmotion spearco intercooler. I was told all I needed was 2 90 degree silicone couplers, but when doing the install I ended up needing 2 different couplers. I blame this more on lipp/suprasport.com, rather than driftmotion. The coupler that suprasport gave me didn't adapt to the stock ct26, so I used a 2"-2.5" coupler that I sourced. Also, the coupler that goes through the fenderwall wasn't long enough. I SUPPOSE you could use the one that they sent, but it would be nearly impossible to get on or off. The coupler they sent isn't long enough, so I sourced a longer one. I hope to have the upper pictures up by tomorrow, but for now this will do. The install of the intercooler was super easy. Driftmotion.com sent 4 brackets that can be easily cut and modified for my custom install. Aaron at driftmotion was a lot of help, and he has a plethera of knowledge. I can't remember the guy at suprasport that helped me out. I couldn't figure out how to get the bumper off, but they were patient, and we got it all worked out. Here is the price breakdown......
lipp intercooler piping 2.5" all the way.................................. 385 shipped
driftmotion spearco replica w/ 90 elbows...................... about 350 shipped
(getting the longer coupler, and the 2-2.5 transition coupler.......25 shipped
greddy rs (comes with adapter)...........................................165 shipped
Here's how it now looks
would help me figure out what to do.. or any suggestions would be great to.. im looking to get a end to end intercooler,, not inlet and out let on one side,, so i'll prolly be geting a long intercooler, and not very tall to best fit the bumper style. thanks guys.
