Please go look its the second one down that i'm interested in, the one that 19 inchs long, 7 inchs high and 2.75 inches thick.
will you guys check this out and tell me if you think it will fit on a P10 with little mod, also do you think the inlet and outlet pipes are the right size for a t-28 setup?

the endtanks are all wrong for it to fit. I would recommend the forge intercooler, it fits perfectly, is larger, and isnt that much more money. the forge is pictured below.

what makes you say that the end tanks are all wrong?

I think it might work if you measure the space you have in the front air scoop. However, Hotsht might know something I dont

they are pointed upwards, and you need them pointed out the sides

I think you looked at the wrong pic. It looks like a smaller Forge.

the forge is pictured on my car, below. Not small if you ask me, only half of it is visible in the pic.

Louis Anaya sells it, $500 IIRC. The one you are looking at will be the same size as the one on the www.nissanperformancemag.com project turbo GA16DE, small if you ask me.

also, Spearco assembly # 2-255 or core # 2-203. Try a search for it, i think i have seen it for about the same price as the forge. The spearco is the same size as the forge.

Another good Spearco is 2-262/2-209 3"x7.12"x18.5 supports 450 and a 670 Flow rate........Sug. retail is $632
The above intercooler is a support of 420 and a flow rate of 630 and is $30 more......just some choices. I have access to all the Spearco line.....sr20de discounts.

I like wider intercoolers vs taller ones. The SE-R front bumper has a wide, but narrow hole, and having a wider intercooler helps fill this better, and take better advantage of airflow. The narrower intercoolers look small because there is a large gap to the left/right of the endtanks.

Only about half of my intercooler (vertically) is exposed to air, the rest is blocked by the bumper cover. And it is 6.5" tall.
