Ok im looking at the 1500 sticky, i started buying it, have the head unit, and almost ready to buy the stuff on the list. But what i noticed is an intercooler set up runs completly different intake side pipes right? which makes sense since it has to run through an intercooler, but that would mean that i dont have to buy the discharge side of the sc kit if i want to intercool it right? Basically i was looking to buy a treadstone TR10 intercooler, and then i heard you can get just the piping and couplings for like 350 from i think its procharger? so am i understanind this stuff right? I know its not super complicated but i just cant picture it in my head, and id hate to waste money buying stuff i dont need if an upgrade is only a few hundred bucks away. any help would be great

 

actually the intake side is the same too. for the discharge side you will need everything that comes with the discharge pipe on the thread EXCEPT the discharge pipe (comes with the BPV and a couple hoses). should be part numbers for all those items and you can purchase them individually and just use an intercooler instead of a discharge pipe.

 

wouldnt that mean tho that i wouldnt have to buy the discharge assembly? instead buy the piping for the IC and then a BOV? i know thats part of the reason for a bypass valve, but sounds like a BOV is a better choice?

 

you can, but then you have to get a blow thru maf. lightning maf won't work.

and thats what i said. you don't have to buy the discharge pipe package thing off the thread. you will however need an intercooler to replace the discharge tube, and a bypass or blowoff valve, and those misc hoses that are pictured (and if u go with bov you won't need all those hoses but you will need some of em).

 

would the sct 2600 or whatever thats called work? i cant seem to find piping prices from procharger though, so it loks like that may not be an option. I was just getting my hopes up thinking, i could save myself 200 bucks, on somthing i didnt need for my final set up and offset the cost of putting one in for around 600 bucks, but if i cant get the piping seems like it would be more expensive...plus id still have to buy a BOV, am i missing anything though? its piping for the intercooler a bov and a blow through maf, which that part doesnt matter cuz i have to buy a new maf anyway.

 

i think you can call procharger and get the kit, its probably not on their website.

you can use the CX racing intercooler on ebay, comes with intercooler and all the piping for 300$ thats what the guy used in the intercooler sticky here. or you can buy the treadstone and buy the piping, couplers, and clamps off ebay too if thats the route you wanna take.

yeah thats all u need. intercooler, piping, BOV (needing to use a blow thru maf), and a couple hoses.
