Have you guys seen this before...
RS500 Intercoolers on Ebay It is exactly the same size as a Contour's stock AC condenser. I measured the depth from the front of the radiator to the hood latch bracket...almost exactly 50mm. This puppy looks like it was almost made for the Contour.
To make it work, you would need to:
Flip it upside down and backwards.
Cut off the inlet and outlet pipes and put on elbows.
Make up some mounting brackets.
All for less than $300. And they seem to be fairly plentiful on Ebay.
The only downside that I see is lag from all of the plumbing to get to/from the FMIC.
What do you guys think? Would this be better than a water-air IC?
