Re: Repost here: lq4 turbo'ed swap
I'm always going to say that an intercooler is a must, just for the mechanical cooling...BUT over the years I've seen enough examples done right without an I/C, that I'm confident it can totally be run that way; provided that your fueling, tune, and meth system are setup in a reliable enough manner to not become prohibitive.
WastedIncome has run that setup on his truck for years in Ill summer, and not had any issues that I've seen. He runs methanol, no mechanical cooling, and drives his rig.
