Having the thickest core you can find isn't always the best thing. Maybe for drag... But for a road course track car, the thicker cores restrict airflow to the radiator which reduces the ability of the radiator to keep coolant temps down.

Efficiency and function...

It blows my mind the **** some of you guys put on your cars. Core sizes that will support well over 800+hp on your car that isn't making 300whp. Lag, pressure drop, inefficient cooling....

On the other hand you must have paid a pretty penny for that thing. I'm all for bling that works.

Looks good, but you could have spent half the cash & got better results.

looks good! is 2.5 the measurement of the pointed tubes from end to end? in other words, is the core top and bottom plates the same length as the tubes from point to point?

+1 The fact of the matter is, most JDM products go through FAR more R&D than USDM ones.
