Default Water-to-Air Intercooler Options

Hey guys, I'm currenly planning out my swap/turbo project and was curious what my options are for W-T-A intercoolers these days?

Air to airs have never impressed me.

And if anyone has a H22A t3 turbo manifold they wanna ditch lemme know

Not very many pickings in the honda-acura world that I've seen. You get more air-to-water options for cars that were originally turbocharged. With some searching I'm sure you can come up with something though, keep us updated.

Well I took a look ... and a lot of the Audi's came with Water-to-air intercoolers from the factory. They even have their own seperate from the engine cooling systems with an electric water pump!

I think i'm going to scavange the scrapyards for one and see if I cant do anything with it. With any luck i'll find one with the pump and all still available.

I'll letcha know what i find.

If you don't find anything in the automotive realm, you could always see if an industrial heat exchanger might fit the bill

There are a lot of companies out there that make small liquid to gas heat exchangers
