the 13b intercooler wont just "stick" on.. , inlets and outlets will need to be relocated. im thinking the easiest way would be to slice off the caps and rebuild them to the correct specs, rather than try and rearrange them.
ive got one in my garage which ill do just that with, but your mileage may vary..

I bought a water/air chargecooler from a Toyota Celica ST165


It measures close to a Carrera GT intercooler in respect of piping. Only thing to do is connect pump and a radiatior in the front. Maybe a large aircondition unit?

Any thoughts?

Please post me other examples of topmounts.

Got an Impreza STI topmount just in case and a small Saab 900T IC with alu endtanks.
