I have the PWR intercooler, and it has done very well for me. I'm running the AMS 3071 turbo kit. I know most people don't like it because it is tube and fin construction, and is from Australia, but is has been reported to flow 1320 cfm's with 1psi pressure loss. It is a great part in my book

it's odd... everyone always cites their intercooler as being good, and they cite bar plate or tube fin, cfm, hp rating, pressure drop and air temperature... but never all 5... which effectively makes the numbers useless.

Much less a real test of pressure drop, intake air temp, compressor outlet temp, and then temp post IC. Actually I've never seen a REAL test.
