Sierra intercoolers have back facing in/outlets.
For those who have done your FMIC installs. Do you think the clocked turbo can mate with the inlet of this intercooler at the drivers side?

only thing about having the outlet being on the drivers side is that it'll have to cross over the manifold. I'm hoping to use a caldina inlet.
Are the in/outlet angled funny?

The Rs500 cooling package (rad + intercooler) looks about right. Sadly whenever I've been to a show recently Forge, Pace etc haven't had one on display to measure

You would have to lose the ac though

I was hoping I can keep the AC because the intercooler looks very slim and wide.
MrDB have you got any pics of your install?

There is also the RX7 intercooler which is smaller but a lot flatter. I think it's the same depth as the Evo's?

I run the std cosworth 4x4 intercooler not the rs500 one. It fits in lower part of bumper if you dont have a CS front bumper on a 185.
