Anyone thats put in an FMIC or parted out a car or anything....Anyone have the dimensions of the stock intercooler? Core thickness and overall length by width including endtanks. I'm going to look around at options of putting in a new stock location intercooler. Please don't turn this into a big "FMIC IS BETTER STOCK LOCATION IS JUST A HEATSINK" debate, thats all been taken into consideration I'm just trying to look into pursuing some other directions.

Thanks

Here's what I found by searching:
Stock:
Length: 20 9/16"
Height: 17"
Width: 1.25"

Rough dimensions of Atech intercooler:
20 x 20 x 2.5"

Boost Addicted's FMIC:
22" x 7" x 2.75"
Ignorance is bliss.

Sorry about that I didn't mean to direct the comment back to you or anyone in general really. I know you aren't any sort of forum nazi, which makes things around here quite nice. Hopefully you don't think I was trying to attack you or anyone else....

Too freaking thin is the dimension I would go by. Or you can go by these dimensions:
Width: 22.5"
Height: 17"
Thickness: 1.25"


I just measured my stock one. The Atech is about twice the thickness of the stock intercooler.
98 S70 T5 Manual.
Upsolute Chip, EST Intake, Accuboost MBC @ 17psi
2.5" EST Cat Back Exhaust
Koni FSD, Eibach Pro springs, IPD Sways, Slater's Endlinks, EST Strut Bar
302mm Slotted/Dimpled Rotors, SS Lines, Akebono Ceramic pads
Team Dynamics Pro Race 2s (17x7 @ 16.5 lbs).
Atech Intercooler, EST Reverse IC Pipes
Samco Coolant Lines
EST Short Shifter

Its alright, i can relate, I've had a LOT on my mind recently also. Today was the first time I've done much work on my car in a LOOOOONG time. Got my new hoses on and cleaned the idle air motor, and throttle body.
Heres an idea I'm considering -- Autotech and EST are way out of my price range, I'm thinking about buying something like a large NPR intercooler, take the core, cut it down and redo the endtanks.

What if, for the sake of argument, I wanted to keep the AC condensor? Would it still fit or would I need a different size?
