Ok for the past few days i have been doing research on my AGP 3.5 Intercooler on my EVO 9. I see alot of people have used this intercooler, but i have not seen anyone post up how much power it was good for. In fact AGP doesnt even specify on their site how much power its capable of handling. I personally have made over 600 whp with this intercooler, but im curious if it is capable of more. If anyone has any testimonial of this intercooler not becoming a restriction after 600-650 whp please chime in.

 

noone has ran this intercooler over 400whp?

 

find out what core is used and you can base research off of that. FWIW the garrett 3.8" flows enough for alot of power.

 

AGP use a spearco core.

 

I currently have the AGP 3.5" Intercooler on my Evo IX and on E85 i'm hitting 415whp at 28psi with almost pressure no drop. My buddy also has this intercooler on his Evo VIII and he's at 521whp. I know he has plans to break into the 600whp mark coming up here shortly.

 

Last i checked agp uses the same 3.5 garrett core that other companies use in their street fmics..

 

I was under the impression AGP used Garrett cores as well. I do live 20 minutes from, I supposed I could just go ask Regardless its a damn good intercooler and I have no complaints what so ever.

 

Well im trying to figure out if they are good for more than 650 whp, and as far as i know they use a spearco 12x24x3.5 core.

 

The intercooler has been great for me all the way up into the 600's but is it gonna become a issue when i push it harder....... Ive not seen one person in one thread thats had this intercooler in excess of 500 whp that ive seen except myself. Im sure there is but i havent seen a thread about it.

 

I'm actually on a VRSF 3.5" Fmic and @ 32 psi it's working fine but if and when I decide to crank it up I'll be looking into the Garrett core.

 

Here's my buddies 521whp Evo VIII using the AGP Intercooler

 

There's quite a bit of difference between 500 and 650+ though. He's already been at the 600 level on it.

 

LOL Thanks Tom thats what ive said like 3x. At some point this think taps and giving it more boost doesnt do anything.

 

I know, I posted the graphs cause the OP said he has never, beside himself, seen someone with excess of 500whp on this intercooler

 

Most def ive seen alot of people have success with the Garrett 3.8 and the ETS 4. I think either would be good in excess of 800 whp.
