Intercooler End Tank Modification
One common question we have been asked is if it's possible to modify the end tanks of our intercoolers. Some people also ask if they can cut off the end tanks and use only the cores for some other purpose.
Although we knew that intercooler end tank modification was possible and a few of our customers have done it, we haven't had a great example to share until now. Len Fisher, our customer in Oregon working with K&J Precision, had a very impressive result replacing the end tanks.
First the end tanks were removed and mounting points were welded on.

After building and welding on the new end tanks, a purpose built and very impressive looking intercooler was the result. Notice that the end tank outlet is oval like the throttle body!
