Here are the details. Price is without piping

Not sure if this was asked already because I already did a search in this thread and found nothing... Is the core a bar and plate design or tube and fin?

Even given the less than ideal mounting location, we were still able to vastly improve over the stock intercooling system. With a 23°F temperature drop over the factory components, we were able to see a significant increase in our test vehicle's performance. Make sure that you head over to the Blog to get a glimpse at the bolt on performance gains!

Feel free to shoot me any questions you might have!

The temperature in, which looks to be the dashed line, is much lower than I would have anticipated. What boost level was the test conducted at?

yeah, that chart is confusing AF. Any reason you're not showing just the raw temps? It says temp drop, which I would expect to be net degrees of cooling.

my guess would be on a completely stock car since they were referring to whp and wtq gains on a stock tune.

Your 2 dotted lines need to be hot side stock (black dotted) and hot side mishi (orange dotted).

How was this 40seconds of data taken? Rolled onto the throttle and then buried it at 15 seconds and held it WOT out to 40 seconds?

That is a good point, should be fixed now ;)

Also, that is exactly the process. This graph is actually a snippet of our heat soak testing, (if you head over the blog post, you can see the graphs related to that test) where our engineer will run back-to-back runs to push this thing to the limit. The way our dynapacks are set up for this test is a loading period, where she is rolling into the throttle, and then mashes it once the packs are loaded. The full test is usually 6 of these pulls in a row with 5-10 seconds in between to let the engine cooling system catch up.

Bar-and-plate :)

This R was bone stock when we ran the tests. We would expect to see a more drastic temperature drop on tuned vehicles

Graph is updated now if that helps! And the net degrees of cooling across the core is posted up right below ;)


Thanks guys!

What is the shipping weight, I live overseas and checking if shipping direct or through a fright forwarder is cheaper.
Hey Guys,

Just wanted to bump this up to make sure you get in on the presale before it's gone!

The intercooler itself is about 35 pounds packed, and add another 10-15 if you decide to go with the piping

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to bump this thread back up to the top with an update!

We're extending the presale for this intercooler and kit! If you were on the fence, or still needed some extra time to think about the purchase, you now have the opportunity to get one of these intercoolers at the discounted rate!

As always, let me know if you have any questions!
