I have an STS Kit but got the 940 hp intercooler for future mods. On extended drives like on the interstate I am having a problem with water building in the intercooler. The water is coming from condensation that part I have figured out. When its 50 degrees or cooler I can get out and the cooler is ICE cold. Any suggestions. This is killing me cause when I get into boost after this, I trip a code for the mass air flow sensor Low Input which i've figured is water on the thing. HELP PLEASE.

Try drilling a small hole about a 1/16" or so in the lowest part of the intercooler. That hole will create a low pressure area and the moisture should want to flow out of it.

I agree with the hole but I would put it in the lowest point of air travel. Sometimes the tubing is lower or running down hill. Water will find the lowest point and set there until the air flow is hi enough to make it move.

I think if you drill a hole your gonna lose pressure in the IC. It may be minimal but it will happen, plus may cause some noise when air is being forced through the hole once the water drains out.

Y not make add a drain valve from a air tank at the lowest point? Just drain it out once in a while with the twist of a ****.

Drilling a 1/16" hole in the lowest point of your tubing works just fine, you will not notice any difference in boost or change in the noise your system puts out. Worst case you just tack the hole closed,but I have not had any problems running mine like that.
