Here is a picture of a Air to Water intercooler.

Please let us know what turbo kit you are running and we can build them to order.

Thanks

Pretty good first attempt, but you may want to make it a bit easier to fill.

Agreed, thats going to be a major pain to bleed. The first ones we built were similar and wow not fun...

Feed line needs to be at the bottom and return line needs to be at the top. Bleed screw is very helpful too.

There is a port at the highest point.

And yes we recommened installing a bleed port into this threaded bung on top.

Well this is a piss off, wish i knew about it before i went a different route over the summer.

What has it been tested as, standalone unit with own pump and cooler?

or just T into the return cooler similar to the aerocharger set up?

This is a DYI part for those wanting to do the cooler. Justin got multiple requests for one.I have not tested them but you could do either the standalone or the coolant.

so how important is it to have a pressure regulated cap like a radiator cap on a T in the line vs just filling from the bleed hole and not allowing it to vent. NM OR VA do you recommend one way over the other

Does not need to be vented at all. We use an Aluminum filler bottle and allow a very small amount of room for expansion. The coolant never gets warm anyway with the tunnel cooler and closed loop. If you ever were to use engine coolant (not sure why anyone would), then the oem pressure cap and vent would be active.
TSS just uses a filler hole like you were describing and they have never had issue either. It just makes it painful to fill and bleed.

Have you tried a mighty-vac vaccum pump with the bleeding apparatus or is not quite "that" painful? I keep one in my box just for bleeding stuff and the other for real vaccum testing and they work sweet.
