Intercooler for S/C Cobra - Suggestions?

I'm running a Vortech V-1 (no trim code, it's old) and really need to get an intercooler, but I don't know anyone with my set-up.

Does anyone know where I should start looking?

How long have you been running it without the intercooler and at how many psi's. Have you had any problems. I am debating on going intercooled or not but I have been told to not go without the intercooler

I dunno exactly how long 3-4 years i'd have to guess. but your tuning will all determine if its safe or not..add the SC and get it dyno tuned by a reputible shop and you will not have any problems running around 8psi which is what most kits are out of the box.

Every cars different and to get the most and safest from a car it would be best to have a unique tune done.

but there are people running the canned tunes fine.

Hey Kristen, have you looked and vortech's website or tried to contact them to see what they say? There's nothing hotter than a hot girl driving a hot car
