How long do you guys think it will take to install this? I want to put it in Friday night so I can go to the track on Saturday since its the first day they open.

 

depends on if you want it to me flush and not stick below your bumper. you will have to cut the support to do that though because of the filler cap, that will make it take much longer

 

yes it is a water to air unit

 

ok.............................................

so he's going to cool the air charge before the blower????

orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

is he calling the heat exchanger an intercooler?

i hope thats the case.

 

yes thats the case, no we have laminova core intake manifold it cools after the charger

 

should take you 2-3 hours if you have access to air tools and a lift, and beer.

 

wow i wouldnt have estimated that much, but give your self time. im doing my cobra heat exchanger next week i dont think it will take me more then 1 hours

 

^you don't have to take off the bumper with the cobra.

 

shouldnt with the cx either, its not that much thicker

you had too to do yours?

 

It's a nice bit thicker. You have to take off the bumper because if you don't, you can't get the bumper support off to cut with the dye grinder. Good luck trying to reach your arm in there blind cutting that ****.

 

well that sucks, glad im going with the cobra. good info though

 

if you have to ask how long its gonna take then save about 5 hours to do it.

 

^even with frequent breaks with a lot of beer, I doubt it would take anyone that long. Unless they aren't using power tools.

is this it...looks like a good deal?

 

thats the going rate and i think thats ralliartist's car too

 

i have it i think its the best one out holds a ton of coolant and always stays cold and i do notice a difference up top

 

Mulling this over big time, looking for dual stage endplate, and reservoir so I can do it all at once. Nghisus half asses nothing

 

Well I wanna do this after I get off work at 8:30. I gotta work at 7am and after that Im going to the track. Hope this works at.

 

good luck dude, post in here if you need any help

 

About how much heater hose do I need to buy and what size L bracket did you use?

 

i have that heat exchanger and i took the bumper off cuz its easyier that way, but all together it took probably 3 hours. it hold about a gallon of coolant. i made my own brakets and it fits perfect with my bumper no cutting required!

 

Iam looking at that cx racing h/e also looks like its a good deal and everyone i have talked to says its good

 

I used about 4ft in total, but i bought 6ft just in case. Make sure it's 3/4 ID. I bought some random L brackets from home depot that were about 4 inches each side

 

i used lots of hose like 7 feet and it was 3/4 ID, for braket i took flat aluminum 1 1/2" wide i think or 2" and just bent and cut them to the size i wanted, then used some self tapping screws.

 

Cool, Thanks guys.
