Default Maximum Size Intercooler To Fit?

Hey guys, I'm in the market for an intercooler (EMUSA or CXracing), and was wondering what the largest sized intercooler is that you can fit relatively easily on an S2000 without having to do any frame modifications.

This intercooler (31x11x3) is slightly overkill for me, but if it would fit then I may go ahead and get it: CXracing 700HP Intercooler

Let me know what you guys are running, and what the biggest size is I can get while fitting relatively easily!

I use to have both the cx racing 31(24core) x12x 3 and the 31x4x12. They will fit fine but I highly advice against them. They are very poor quality inter coolers with a lot of space between the fins. The fins are not very dense at all. If you can afford it get a garret core intercooler. If money is tight get a precision 600hp inter cooler.

I current run a garret core 24x12x3.5 intercooler.

Damn; I had heard that the CXracing intercoolers actually weren't all that bad at all. Same with EMUSA...

I'll do some more poking around and see what I find. I doubt this car will see more than 500WHP in a VERY long time, so anything rated to 600HP will be quite a bit of growing room.

Hes saying you are going to block alot of the air going into engine bay, and maybe run hotter.
