Default vortech intercooler

I found this intercooler http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TURBO...65870708QQrdZ1 on ebay do you think it will be worth it to make it work with a vortech?

It is like 1300 for the after cooler I can get this for 300 and make the piping for myself so why will it not be worth it?

The son of one of the tuners where I got my car tuned used an air to air with his Vortech and made it into the semi-finals at the NMRA weekend races. It can be done. I'm not sure which one he used but he told me it was an air to air. You can loosen the nuts that hold the front of the head unit from the gear box and point it any direction you want.

You could also look into one of those water/methanol injection kits. I think they're only about 500 bucks.

I hear ya. You could call these guys to find out about how the air to air worked out for them. I think his son works there in the summer when he's home from college but they all know his setup well.
