{"product_id":"short-stack-intercooler-system","title":"Short Stack Intercooler System","description":"The ZZPerformance Short Stack Intercooler System offers an affordable solution for supercharged 3800 GM engines, effectively reducing knock retard (KR) and lowering intake air temperatures. This system addresses a significant downfall of the factory supercharged 3800s by providing an intercooler that prevents post-supercharger air temperatures from skyrocketing, especially with smaller supercharger pulleys.\n\nThe kit includes a ZZP CNC aluminum short stack intercooler core, a dual-pass front mount heat exchanger for efficient routing and packaging, and a ZZP S1 intercooler pump. It also comes with necessary components such as 2 Garloc supercharger gaskets, 3\/4\" heater hose, all hose clamps, fittings, RTV, zip ties, longer stainless bolts, and detailed installation instructions. The intercooler core itself is made in-house at ZZPerformance and raises the supercharger by only 1 inch, ensuring it fits under any hood.\n\nInstallation is estimated at 5 hours, and the system is designed to retain full stock PCV and EGR functionality without requiring modifications to the hood latch. However, the kit is not a complete solution; buyers will need to separately acquire a fuel rail solution (either ZZP Injector Spacers or Billet Fuel Logs), coolant, and a new supercharger belt.\n\nFitment is categorized into Gen 3 and Gen 5 models. Gen 3 is compatible with '97-'03 Grand Prix, '04+ Monte Carlo SS, '04+ Impala SS, and '97+ Buick Regal. Gen 5 is for 2004 and newer Grand Prix or vehicles with the Gen 5 blower retrofitted. The system allows for the elimination of existing KR or a potential 0.2\" drop in pulley size if no KR is present. There is a fitment note indicating potential use in some Holden\/Australian applications, but full compatibility is not guaranteed.","brand":"ZZPerformance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52860386476344,"sku":"ZZ-3800-SSIC","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/687933118.webp?v=1787767135","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/short-stack-intercooler-system","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
