New Boot 97 GTS with Paxton

**68GoldRunner** · 12-11-2019

Hello all,

Just bought my 97 GTS about two months ago. Car is Blue with white stripes, 14,300 miles, and lots of tasteful aftermarket parts. Not new to Mopar. Have an original 68 Road Runner 383 4 speed car I’m restoring and traded in my 16 Challenger Hellcat for the Viper. Anyway one of the mods is a Paxton Novi2000 with an air to air intercooler mounted in the front fascia. The original Paxton air to water intercooler came with the car. I plan to flush the coolant system and change with Evans waterless coolant. My question is which intercooler would be better or more efficient before I mess with the cooling system? The Paxton has the original 3 3/4 pulley, Edelbrock headers, and is catless with an aftermarket exhaust system. I’m not sure about the injectors or that fuel pump yet. The car will be a summer time driver, for fun trips out of town, and track day car. I’d like to make around 750 to 800 horsepower which doesn’t seem too out of reach for the car. Anyway keep the air to air intercooler or ditch it for the air to water? Thanks all. Glad to be hear!
