well where there is a base kit, you always go up from there...personally if I'm going to shell out 3k or more for a kit, I would at least invest another 3 along with it to build the motor to handle more than just 6psi.

Who said Yaris was slow?

Lots of OEM intercoolers are black...! Some say a coat of paint might interfer with the heat exchange process. One thing is for sure, IF there is a difference is not significative.
Black Intercoolers = Sleeper look Bare Aluminum = Hey look I'm turbocharged! Godspeed has a line of black intercoolers... nice! This will be a full blown hardcore car. So there is no much point on hiding the cooler. Also, the car is representing a name "MicroImage" it has to be flashy!! Looking great!!! |

Really and how many boosted cars have you worked on? It's not miss information you know how many VW I've strapped to a dyno who don't have intercoolers a lot. Maybe it's a little different up here since we're almost at sea level and have cooler air but it might be a different case in Florida.

Yeah, you do not want to coat the intercooler in regular paint as it will screw with the air flow not cooling the charge, they do however sell special paint for this application which if i remember is kind of pricey for what it is... |

I would imagine it would make an even bigger difference with an intercooler too due to the density difference between water and air maybe powdercoating it black would be better?
