Question Intercooler (installed) - how much?

Hey guys, just wondering realistically how much it would cost all up to buy an intercooler and get it fitted etc? (It would be for a supercharged EL 4.0).
Cheers.

i can sell you a small intercooler that i have (a few marks but hardly used)

fitting would depend on what work is needed....ie is aircon staying or being moved....what body mods are needed.....piping choice.....body kit mods

It's running a powerdyne 9psi supercharger, JMM dev5 cam, extractors and 3" exhaust (well getting done this week) and water injection. Is there any real need for an intercooler?
If so what size would be best?
Thanks.

At 9psi it would be a big help to cool the air down befor it made it to the engine!! a small cooler would do, As brad sugested. If you fitted it and did the work yourself it can be cheap as or if you were to get it done it may cost up a a couple of thousand depending on what cooler they used. The benifit would be quite significant i would expect. also consider a water to air cooler as well.

get a cooler off egay, fit it yourself if your talented - or get a shop to do your work, id be guessing to say how much but id say it wouldnt be cheap as there is a fair bit of labour in fitting a cooler. $700+ id say for 3" Stainless or alluminium. Why do you want an intercooler - the cars already dyno proven so....
