I'm trying to fab up some stuff and am looking for some 4.5" intercooler end tanks for my 996TT anyone on here who can steer me in the right direction as far as who offers em? PM ME, please!
Please don't respond to my thread if you have nothing related to my thread to post. |
subscribed. Val let me know what u find bud :) the only ic providers I found were proto, markski, awe, evoms clubsports, etc...one of those may have some endtanks they can sell seperately?
|
All of the drop-in ICs are 3.5" right? You might need Markski (or equivalent) to custom fab you some if you need 4.5".
|
you buy the cores and fab the end tanks up. alot of work though. fitment is gonna be a pita too
|
the 4.5s we make only work with our end tanks... and as MArk said, putting together one offs on car... its super labor intensive and lots of work... especially since your trying to make the pipes go thru the holes, then fit it in the bracket then the plastic covers...
its a mess.. Our 4.5s do not work with OEM hoses... its reserved for hardpiping.. http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/4...01084710pm.jpg |
Switzer has nice ones. If not make them yourself. Pick a very good core, bell uses the end plates to move engine air instead of just being a piece of metal to weld tabs to. I believe that hp is in the end tanks and you may want to shorten the cores to optimize the end tanks.

I'm having one of my Mechnical engineers at work make end tanks for these cores.
http://www.treadstoneperformance.com...ooler+Core+996 I'll make my drawings and .dxf files available for the community here. You'll have to add whatever inlet/outlet pipes you want and mounts. The drawings will give all dimentions for the mounting locations. It'll have some DIY fabricating, but it'll be a good base for people to start with. It'll be a few weeks before they are ready though. -Ed |

Thats site, whoever is selling it has no clew what size should go in there.. furthermore its probably cheap asian stuff... I laughed when I read that "This core was designed around the Porsche twin turbo 966 intercooler." my 6" core http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/3361/img7284m.jpg |

Its just time to make them, If you have all the material I would say a day per side. In pic are bell cores. There is 14 rows in a 9" wide core.

I have 7 bikes two play cars and a mechanical contracting business.. Time is short here but unless I am totally in love with something I just make it myself. I have all the tools and equipment under my roof. It is also relaxing for me as messed up as that sounds..
