Default Need an aftercooler?

CT charges $1300 for an aftercooler kit, they go used for anywhere between $500 and $900 (if you're lucky enough to find one used). why not put together your own kit for under $300? other than the cooler unit all you should need is some coolant hose, coolant pump, and a small radiator. this looks identical to the comptech one and if modification is required, it should be minimal.

MADE IN CHINA. be careful...like all things... you get what you pay for. it would be a huge buzz kill if something went wrong and water was being fed into your motor instead of air

people dont be like this..
they made it to work and not to look like it would work..
Its simple enough..you Put water in it,turn the pump on and after 5 min you can see if the water goes anywhere or not.If it doesnt leak its good to go.
Buy it and make an Aftercooler yourself.

i was going to make an oink oink joke but a guinea PIG doesn't make those noises.


i need a thorough DIY writeup on this mod. it appears to be a nice cheap mod to do yourself but i'll need some guidance though. there must be two buddies out there one aftercooled and another non-ac'd where the ac friend can contribute install expertise to the non-ac buddy...
