Took me a while but I found pictures of cdyosh's 1986 Turbo Marlin built a long time ago and I added a front mount intercooler (FMIC) to:



Garret hybrid turbo on stock manifold connected to a normally aspirated 22R-E cylinder head for higher compression



Here is the intercooler work I did when I was just 19 yrs old (so like a few days ago :yupyup: )




The intercooler used is a top mount unit from my old JDM 4A-GZE Supercharged engine, but I don't have a better picture of it. It fit really well between the grill and radiator but his A/C was an aftermarket add-on that stopped working so we removed the condenser to fit the intercooler. Pipes and IC are 2" diameter. Also as you can see he has a body lift that gave room to run the piping above the passenger's side of the radiator.

The boost is set to 12 psi and it pulls pretty strong. Hope this helps!
