Frontmount intercooler in a ST205

Postby Illusionz » Thu Apr 19, 2007 2:59 pm

Does anyone know how to bascially put in a front mount intercooler into a ST205 Celica, where to run the pipes and mount the intercooler if there is no aircon or Water to air radiators in the way? and any problems i should be looking for before i start?

the best way is to pull the front apart and basically just work it out,

see what room there, is and the best route for the piping to go.

yup, take front off see what you have and what you dont. if you dont want to mess around for ages, a complete kit with pipes and joiner and intercooler etc will set you back round 700-800 max (big front mount) imported!

ps if you want details, i can arrange one if needed.

Once you disconnect the i think this the water gauge or something off the intercooler the engine light comes on is there anyway around this?

You will need to hijack IC (can't remember either make it 12v or GND, I think 12v...) wire going to ECU from IC controller.
