intercooler?

Im wanting to run twin GT25's on my 87 350 TPI and iv seen a few guys not running IC and it looks like you would have nearly instant boost without 1...so guys do you think not using an IC would be ok?

Re: intercooler?

How much boost? It may be ok without it for a low boost level but compressed air gets HOT so an intercooler is always a good idea. Or else add methanol injection.

Re: intercooler?

DITTO! Unfortunately for me my clutch started to slip bad after i put the IC on but I was able to get much more aggressive with the timing after I put the IC on. I want to Inject Meth soon but I think it will take alot more tuning. Winter will get a rebuild or a 350 (and a clutch) maybe by summer next year i'll inject it.
