TexasQuest Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 Man if they also made a drop in aluminum radiator with fan mounts and sensor plugs they'd make a killing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarquestRescue Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 (edited) It is a copy of the KD M with 2.5 pipes vs the 2.25 the *DM inter coolers came with. Cx racing may well have made the inter coolers for *DM. It will fit, bolt in and support 400 hp. Some custom pipe fabrication will be required. For a person who has the full *DM hard pipe kit with a modified stock inter cooler this would be nearly plug and play. I say nearly, because the *DM pipes are 2.25 and they put 2.5 on the intercooler and there is little room for an adapter. It is well suited for a tbi guys that wants to minimize the cutting and hacking. The mpi guys typically choose bigger, for a little less money and are looking at making all new pipes any way.

TexasQuest Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 So 2.5" intercooler piping is not overkill for a tbi car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarquestRescue Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) So 2.5" intercooler piping is not overkill for a tbi car?In my opinion it is over kill. Most tbi cars are limited by the bolt on turbos upgrades the guys like to run and the limitations of tuning the stock fuel system. Since an air flow meter and stock tb inlet are typically retained it is harder to fit 2.5 pipe vs 2.25 then it is on a mpi. So why beat your head against the wall to use 2.5 if the 05/05h turbine is plugging the exhaust and the owner is unwilling to spend the time and dollars it takes to learn how to make the stock ecu work past 240 hp. The stock inter cooler sucks. this is a nice up grade, but 2.25 nipples on it would have made it easier to install on a tbi car. But then it would not have appealed to the mpi guys, but like a said they would want bigger any way.

MasterVivi Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 Buy 2.5" to 2.25" adapters = problem solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOTTY Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) I think CX may be wrong stating in their ad that the inlet/outlet pipes are 2.5'' in diameter . They were 2.25 when *DM had them made , 2.5'' is as Starquestresque stated 'overkill', maybe someone who bought one from CX can verify ?
