One of the manufacturers will see this post and complain that the test was not conducted properly and the results are biased and are worthless. Buschur says they have the best IC then why dont they loan one for the testing and prove it rather than just trying to bash everyone else.

I believe Nisei has by far the best one. Buschur and AMS are in second. Now here is the catch. What do you need the intercooler for?

Vishnu when they competed in the 2004 Car & Driver Supercar Challenge they ran the car with stock IC and stock piping. They hit well into the 11s for the 1/4 mile. Come on.... I believe that any IC that you will upgrade will do better then stock. They question is if NEED IT.

I am only buying a LICP and I will be happy with that. I don't see the point into a bigger IC unless you go with 20g and up.

I have to agree to one thing. These IC are too much. I mean I can make 2 or even 3 payments on my car with some of the prices I see out here.

Well Good Luck to you and lets see some numbers

I would LOVE it if the HKS and ARC made it into this test to see if they are worth the extra money!

Can't wait for the results. Might not be a bad idea to clean all intercoolers the same way before the test.. if they're used.

Make sure you are comparing the Nisei Race and BR Race intercooler. Not standard vs. race.
