Do you have any recommendations for W2A IC's for the two?
The cheapest and most affective way dollar for dollar is a side mount IC in the stock location, get a thick 4'' core from ebay, put a high 9"puller spal fan on it, and a block off plate so all the air that comes into the engine bay goes through the IC. they are good IC's that are able to support up to 400hp to flywheel. if your looking for more than that, you should do a trunk mounted intercooler with dual fans, or a W2A IC. as for suggestions, there are a lot of guys on here that have w2A IC's. you can run a ST-185 or ST205 all-trac W2A IC, or make your own from kits people sell. it all depends on your future HP goals, and remember with the W2A IC's you sometimes add a lot of weight to the car with a heat exchanger, water, pumps, thick IC cores.
