The intercooler:

Bluebird top mount intercooler painted flat black it's in decent shape just has some ground down areas on the corners (doesn't leak)


The piping:

I used to run this set up on my BBdet NX it locates the top mount intercooler to the front. It's not the nicest set up but if you are on a budget then this is a good bet...

you will need the bluebird turbo compressor outlet (or something similar) and either the TB to top mount IC pipe (will need to be cut) or a fabricated pipe to connect it (short ram intake might work)

It takes the typical path and should require removal of the washer reservoir (I don't have one so unsure) and relocation of the overflow tank. The piping comes up from the other side where the battery is (battery must be relocated or use a smaller one)

the piping is all mandrel bent steel... so it's tough and pretty clean, no rust, 2.25 hot side and 2.5 after the intercooler and comes with couplers. the pipe sections from intercooler to entering the engine bay are welded but the cold side had an incomplete weld so there is a coupler over it with clamps.


shipping is about $36 with or without the intercooler b/c of the piping being welded together

I will have pics later that I can email (just tell me what you need pics of)

I accept paypal, money orders...(I'm missing one) gold...?

I'm open to all offers... possibly trades.
