Thumbs up SFR IC Endtank Mod

Super quick turnaround and a nice looking job. Not as big of an endtank as the Lindsey Stage I or Sami's but considerably better and still uses the stock upper mount. Pretty slick.

Cool

We are currently running Gruppe951's intercooler Stage III. The IC mounted in Sami's car was my cooler.It was the first we modified. After that we have developed cooler design to some steps furter, so current IC's are Stage III

Man, Tim has amazing welding/fabrication skills. Those welds look like butter spread on toast.

I don't know John...I don't think I could spread butter on toast that evenly.

That was the first intercooler that I have done. Next time I will make the end tank even bigger.

<<<how is the performance gain?>>>

Hard to say. As, again, I changed to many other things. Removed the 3" cat and pulled an additonal 40lbs from the car and slotted the nose panel. I ran 14 psi at the last DE (the only time I've driven it since the "mod") and intake temps were good, but the ambient temps were low (60-70).
