I don't know about that. Even 5psi on the streetflight turbo'd 2.5L is about 230 HP to the wheels. Thats low enough to not have to worry about an intercooler. The vortech SC'rs are running 7-10psi without an intercooler though they dump fuel like mad under high boost.
So I think 7 psi with conservative tune is okay without an intercooler if you aren't nailing it on really hot days.
Oh yeah, you are showing an air-air intercooler and there is no room for that on an SVT.
With all that being said, I have a water to air intercooler sitting on the shelf right now waiting to be fitted into the car. I've already learned my lesson on running without an intercooler on hot days.!
It's a pity that I sent the picture of the unfinished intake piping. The finished-up painted version looks much better.
Can you post that one Derek?
