What size intercooler fits behind LX front bumper?

Someone put a belt on your turbo...

The one that's 32" OAL x 4" core will fit providing the condensor isn't in the way. IF it sticks out any furhter than the core support, it's that much more you have to cut out of the bumper cover.

You can fit 4" tubing behind the bumper cover with minimal trimming... done it a million times.

I'll have to relocate my trans cooler, I assume putting it in front of the intercooler? Also, how much gap should there be between the intercooler and condenser?

[turbostang]

Any airgap is good. The trans cooler is gonna be fun, you'll just have to be creative. Mine mounts above the intercooler at an angle (angled back towards the hood hinge). It sits right behind the grille opening.

You can get a dedicated fan for the trans cooler and mount it in a remote location.

might not be a bad idea, but where to put it that it'll get good airflow across it with the lx bumper will be fun.

I've seen where guys put them back by the rear axle. Plenty of room and away from heat.

Heres an idea to keep the theme of "Behind LX bumper"

Here is how I think did mine but I'm sure I have a LOT more room then you do

Here's a pic of mine. It's not hidden, but I still have the condensor and at the time (before the bodywork) didn't care about having to hack it up to fit. It makes for an interesting conversation piece. LOL.

Ended up getting the 31x12x4 Godspeed setup

Before I went with a water cooler mine was mounted to the bottom of the pass side rear framerail.

Would you happen to have any pictures of that set up?
