Cosworth intercooler

Frag · Post by **Frag** » Thu Jul 14, 2005 8:21 pm

Does anyone know the demensions of a Cosworth intercooler? 2wd or 4wd. I don't care about the RS500 but if you know it might as well post it to the thread for future use.

and all you need to know about the RS500 is BIG

Yeah i'm lazy though, if everything goes right I should be moving closer to him. I might just ask him how much he wants to sell one for but I was seeing if I could cheap out and buy a simmiar sized unit from a different appication.

I'll try to measure mine if I pick up my car later after work, along with my RS500 IC. I don't have the numbers for the 4wd one but I know it's a little bigger than the 2wd one.

Why is the 4wd one bigger?

It's a progression in tunning, it flows a bit more, as a matter of fact the 4wd was tuned to have more HP because of the extra drive train loss.

Here's the size difference between 4WD & 2WD Cosworth intercoolers (and to answer your question...)

2wd:
10 cm high (top to bottom)
60cm long to its furthest opposing points
10cm deep (front to back)
41cm actual core length.

4wd:
11.5 cm high (top to bottom)
66cm long to its furthest opposing points
12.25cm deep (front to back)
45.5cm actual core length.

I bet you they all vary slightly in size and width, fins and rows of tube/bar
