It would be nice to see a few side by side pictures and a flow bench comparison.

Also, the cooling capacity is the biggest change.  The added flow is 20% of what makes it better....

What do you base this 20% increase on?

He was saying that the increase CFM was only "20%" of the benefit.  The real benefit is that this core does a better job cooling the air.  It's performance increase is not about moving more air, it is about keeping the air colder.  HEAT has been the 3.5Eco's achillies heal more than airflow..  How many threads havee there been where people are talking about 140-150-160-170* IAT2's?  I know my car runs up in the 170's at idle, and 140's moving in summer.  That is a direct loss of timing, getting it down sub 100* is pure $$$.

You have not been following this development process over the last 2 years I see.  The outlet tank exit went from 290 cfm on their stock replacement tank to a little over 600 cfm on mine.  Iat2 maintains 25 degrees over ambient at 18 psi of boost with tis unit.  The stock intercooler will heat soak and hit 180 degrees on a 90 degree day at that boost level.  At slow speeds the manifold will get hot just because of it being on top of the engine, nothing you can do about that.

Mine should be here today. Won't be installing until the weekend if it is delivered need to get the crew together to film this install. I've seen a couple of them delivered and they look great.

It's so clear to see how inadequite the stock intercooler is...was....its almost like showing what the difference is between no intercooler(stock) and actually having one(upgrade).  This is a must have!  Awesome!

For those skeptical of this upgrade I just made an installation video with a good buddy of mine. Editing etc now, but for the mean time here are some comparison photos! Absolutely worth it!




Sucker is HEAVY! But with the cast end tanks over plastic and the thickness of the intercooler it really shows how much MORE there is there.
