Hello all!
I am getting ready to embark on a little project with a couple of ST165's. I'm not all that familiar with the Water-to-Air intercoolers, but so far, I'm not a fan of the system on the ST165's. To make the work easier for myself, I'm planning on removing the entire system and running a FMIC instead. I am a welder, so I can fab one up really easily with some spare 2" stainless that I have laying around.
My question for you guys is what do I have to remove to get rid of the components of the water-to-air intercooler? I found a write-up on this site at some point, but I can't find it again. I know about clocking the turbo to make it a little easier, but what about all of the coolant lines, radiator, and water pump for the intercooler? I want to get rid of everything if at all possible, but I don't want to have leaks or complications.
Any insight (or photos) that anyone has would be great! I'm going to start on this project next weekend, so I can keep you all posted! Thank you!
