Cooling down my IATs in my Twincharged Setup



no, you literally need a hole in the hood. you have to push air through it and the air has to go somewhere. you need that low pressure area on top of the intercooler, with a hole in the hood, to pull air through from the air dam under the car. look up v-mounts. you need a hole in the hood.
 


I think you may be the first twincharged setup i've heard of without an intercooler post turbo and pre supercharger. I've seen setups without a cooler after the supercharger. That little cooler under the supercharger is not going to keep up with the temps. An A2A post turbo and a W2A for post SC is an ideal setup. If you really want to keep the bumper support i'm sure you could get a very large fmhe and run 2 W2A cores post turbo and another post SC.

I think this is what I am going to do.

I'm probably going to run a 24x12x3 A2A Intercooler post Turbo with a 24x12x1 A2W Intercooler post Super. I'm just curious which one should be put in front?
 
The A2A will probably only work out front, the piping and just the way it is mounted needs a little bit more space. You want the A2A out front anyway to do it's job.
 
My twin-charged setup is running two water-to-air cores, one after the turbo, and one under the supercharger, both using the same FMHE (Frozen Boost type 101). The turbo core is a 12x12x4.5 unit mounted in the driver-side bumper. I had to cut a little bit of sheet metal to get it in there. I routed the water line like this: FMHE->pump->sc core->turbo core->reservoir->FMHE.

Before I added the turbo intercooler, I was running just the sc core, and I was only able to get about 15psi/15* timing (mid 12's time). After the turbo core, I raised the boost to 18psi with 20* timing on 93 gas. You should definitely get either the air or water intercooler for the turbo to reduce those temps.

You can stack them if you got creative. Cutting out the bumper support would be pretty much mandatory though... Run the A2W above the A2A.
You could also run a small A2A side mounted in the driver side fender well. It wouldn't be ideal but if you made an air duct it would be 100 times better than no intercooler, and you could keep your bumper support.

Good luck with whatever you decide, you will pick up good power for sure.
 
I was able to keep part of my bumper support but if I get in an accident the ic will be damaged but its only $150. If you remove your hood latch support bar then you will definitely have room to run both.
