intercooler?

Im wanting to run twin GT25's on my 87 350 TPI and iv seen a few guys not running IC and it looks like you would have nearly instant boost without 1...so guys do you think not using an IC would be ok?

How much boost? It may be ok without it for a low boost level but compressed air gets HOT so an intercooler is always a good idea. Or else add methanol injection.

Re: intercooler?

DITTO! Unfortunately for me my clutch started to slip bad after i put the IC on but I was able to get much more aggressive with the timing after I put the IC on. I want to Inject Meth soon but I think it will take alot more tuning. Winter will get a rebuild or a 350 (and a clutch) maybe by summer next year i'll inject it.
