intercooler questions.. sounds stupid, i know nothing abt this stuffs... Options

[lubu]

im planning to putting a turbo into my 5sfe, what im curious abt is that does the intercooler ifself do anything?...it cools down the air so does this mean it increases the hp..or it only works with a turbo kit?

....another thing is how much is for a TRD w2a intercooler kit, not too expensive i hope.

cheers.

edited: dont worry abt the intercooler question, already know the answer ...where would i find reasonable price for a turbo kit..and a trd w2a cooler (they just look mad)

It will not fit your 5sfte setup due to the location of the throttle body on 5SFE.
Since, 5SFE has side feed manifold, it would be easier to do a FMIC or a barrel wta IC (like PWR).

And yes, that is a sticker on the intercooler.
See pic of the original one in Charlie's post.
By the way, "heat exchanger" is normally referred to the (radiator) unit installed in the front of the car.
