What the hell Bill? "Where did I say every other runner. I said every other one." Dont those mean the same thing? The reason that they are full fins is to keep turbulence to a minimum by giving air a straighter path to follow. The 1/4 fins are there to give it some extra surface area for cooling purposes. Its pretty much like any other intercooler ive seen. There are hundreds of styles of internal fins. This is one of them.



I also did tell you that the core was 3 inches thick, not the endtanks.



Its hard to say why these are cheap. On thier website, they sell for $349 I believe. It could also be that this is a company based in Canadia, so the exchange rate could be a factor also, not really sure. From what I can remember from my trip to Viagra Falls is that they love US currency. So I dunno



From the looks of it, it was put together very well. All the welds are a little crued, but thats probally because they werent welded by a TIG robot. I did a datalog tonight and it keeps my temps a hell of alot lower than the top mount. At 13 psi in 4th gear, it was a differenc of 34 degress C. I cant remember what the ambient temp was when I did the other datalog, but tonight it was 41 degress F. So I really cant say much because it could have been warmer that day.





Any ways, thanks for the positive feedback. I am hoping to get the it done soon, but for now, it will rest.

what was that thing that was on top of the tmic?
I forgot to answer this. It was an attempt at an intercooler sprayer. It worked until the cooler got heated up. Once it heated up, it could only do so much. I was just trying to rig something up for the night at the track. Dont have to worry about much heat soak now

Ted, I am glad you went to your english classes. I won't give you the satisfaction of getting into it with you. Other members have already said the nasty things to you I would like to say to you right now. Your arrogance always gets you in deep ****, so I will allow you to choke on the verbal diaherrea that flows from your mouth as always.



I know you will choke and die someday. So there is hope yet.

Good stuff man



By the way, What's the deal with all the parts slammin going on in here?



The next time someone has an opinion of which parts should be on a car, instead of slammin it, just buy it and ship it to 'em, until then, worry about the parts on your own car, ****** critics.

Also, about the bumper support:



1. It sucks

2. The intercooler weighs alot more than the little fiberglass piece of crap.

3. It sucks
