intercooler question
i have a stock 97 gst spyder...mods are fidanza clutch and flywheel,greddy rs b.o.v,greddy turbo timer,downpipe,apexi n1 exhaust, would it be worth it to get a intercooler kit ,or should i wait till i get a bigger turbo?

RE: intercooler question
You should get a MBC and gauges before you get a FMIC.
you can get a FMIC with the stock turbo but you wont get a power increace... you will get the power once the bigger turbo is added.
So you have a stock modded car?

You want a boost gauge and a manual boost controller or an electric one (set to 15-16 psi). (depending on your budget)
I think you have what is called a 14b turbo. Its a little bigger than the stock one.

now the 14b does it have the 7mm opening? sorry if q's are repetitive,im just tryin to get smart with this stuff so i dont blow another turbo..my budget is really tight now i have a baby on the way...but io mean i have a friend next door who owns a subaru and he said he has a mbc and he'll give it to me once i get a boost gauge..so i guess thats priorty for my next mods then...

RE: intercooler question
Im not too sure what the opening is.
However the stock turbo sucks anyways. There is no reay way you could have prevented that. Dont worry you wont blow that turbo at 15-16 psi. Thats awesome dude is it a manual boost controller or an electric one?

RE: intercooler question
does your turbo point to the side? like to outlet to the intercooler piping? not the actual intake. Cuz if so, its the T25 housing. But where he said its 35%better, you may have a variation on the Big T28.
