Yes it would work, but why would you bother using such a poor intercooler?

Considering the cost of piping, by the tim you have done this, you may aswell have gotten a decent IC aswell.

DUDE, when i said *doing it rungi* i ment the likes of

Going to an exhaust shop to make your piping, or even better, second hand!

Useing old used OE *adapters* and Rubber bends

Used second hand Clamps (every peny!)

Using a second hand VR4 Cooler

that sort of thing.

or just pay $2000 and get a propper, all brand new setup, with chrome piping, brand new bends, and OMGOSH brand new clamps! all mounted the way it should be and such.

how much cash u got :P
