They have a $100 off discount right now, Having raised boost, I am thinking about this.
I called and was told;
-the standard kit would be sufficient
-all kits come with the fitting upgrade now
- I would need to add an additional 1 gallon tank for capacity, theirs is $200 extra
-I would need to check my tune to make sure the IC pump is on 100%

What are your thoughts ?

Depends on how you define worth it. Technically, you would really have no need for cooler IATs for daily driving. However, if you do play around here and there, then I suppose its worth it but its not a cheap mod unless you're installing it yourself. My car is a daily driver and primarily street driven, I have the FI Interchiller installed.

 

[GreenMachine15]

I will install it myself. Looking for heat soak reduction in traffic as well......

A chiller makes a huge difference in IC and IAT temps, no question about it.

Mines on all the time. 37 degree is cools to in 93 degree heat with a 70 degree dew point

I think I will do it. Should I get the $750 standard kit and add the drag option? Or is the drag kit for $1100 better or cools faster?
Do you have the tank for extra capacity?

Yes I have a tank in the front bumper. You gain about 15-20 degrees cooler wirh the drag kit as it shuts off the AC in the cabin and uses all the cooling for the supercharger

Does anyone know where I can get that tank that bolts into the bumper reinforcement after you cut it?

Mines not cut I made my own tank

You're using r134a right?

 

[h8trmkr]

I used both. 134 is way easier to get and can be done at home with a vac pump and gauges. I seen no benefits to one or the other

Yea just wanted to clarify since your temps are really good for a KC kit and we all know r134a cools better than 1234yf which is what I'm running. I see the same temps you're getting with 1234yf with the FI Interchiller stage 1 kit, and not everyone wants to convert to r134a. Just wanted to clarify for the OP so he doesn't expect the same results if he stays with 1234yf.

RacerX and Bmason say to just get the standard kit. RacerX is running it

They are both on youtube if you don't know who they are

Here is what I got just now on 134 going in town 5 miles to get dinner. On the way all killer chiller than on way home killer and can ac it’s 82 out 69 degree dew point

 

[h8trmkr]

Starting temp first
Sec in 1 mile down the road
3rd at subway 5 miles away

One of the best mods I’ve ever done

Gearhead Fabrication. You will need to call them.

 

[GreenMachine15]

Do you know what they charge for it?

Can't remember off the top of my head. FFBOS can tell you.

Sorry if this is a dumb question....What was the heat exchanger for that he took out? how does that affect either the oil or trans that it is cooling?
