ankers Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Hiya im lookong for a new intercooler for my starlet 350bhp build. Im just wondering if this ebay intercooler is good for my kind of power I've currently got a jperformance intercooler but all the fins are badly damaged so want to change it! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TOYOTA-STARLET-EP82-EP91-INTERCOOLER-KIT-FMIC-/121472590413?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item1c4854a24d Quote Link to post Share on other sites
funny onion Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Just bought this and fitted it to my Glanza. I can vouch that it is a good quality kit and fits very well. As for the power aspect you might end up needing a bigger core but don't quote me on that you're better off speaking to the person building the engine/mapping it.

russ78 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) the core looks a little smaller than others out there, personally if I was looking for a good quality, size and price intercooler the Toyosports Blitz replica would win every time and its rated to flow 400-450bhp http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-Starlet-GT-Glanza-turbo-Toyo-sports-Front-Mount-Intercooler-kit-/281554154319?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item418def734f Edited January 11, 2015 by russ78 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 also another important part to factor in is intercooler pipework size and length bigger is better so try and go for at least 2.5 inch as smaller will cause restrictions when running high boost and always take the shortest route possible Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ankers Posted January 11, 2015 Author Share Posted January 11, 2015 And that will be better than the one I've been looking at? If i will be better getting a jporfomance intercooler again then i will jist buy one but im trying save some money Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) intercooler core your looking at measures 580 x 210 x 63mm the measurements of the toyosports 600mm x 268mm x 75mm as you can see its a bigger core so will flow more bhp so yes will perform better.... as will the jperformance as its a blitz rep to Edited January 11, 2015 by russ78 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ankers Posted January 11, 2015 Author Share Posted January 11, 2015 Oright ok i see what youbmean and my jpofromance is th hdi rep one not the taller one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 The Jperformance / HDI core is huge, for power its probably the best core to get (unless we're talking custom or skyline cores etc.)If you already just try get another the same. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ankers Posted January 11, 2015 Author Share Posted January 11, 2015 Ok i will just get a new jperformance one just be easier Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ankers Posted January 11, 2015 Author Share Posted January 11, 2015 Will 2.5inch be good for 350bhp or should i go for 3inch? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ankers Posted February 23, 2015 Author Share Posted February 23, 2015 Ino this is an old post of mine but i need to know if the above link intercooler will fit or do i need angled intake and outlet not straight ones? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I have a core i had on my glanza pm me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I think that the core originally posted above will flow better than the Jperformance (blitz rep) as the end tanks are wank. End tanks on that core look pretty good and cold side piping is the same as the TB. Nothing wrong with a slightly thinner diameter hot side as it keeps turbo speed up thus helping with lag.
