Interesting reading about intercoolers

I've been through the whole site, but paid attention especially to their evaluation of core types and tank shapes and configuration.

 

According to these guys, the Spearco Type with inlet & outlet on same side is using the 1st 25% of the core (next to the inlet and outlet) for the majority of cooling.

 

Their observations on core types are rather interesting....

 

ARE Intercoolers

Wow, this is some really good reading. Many thanks for posting the link!

It comes at a great time when I'm trying to figure out what intercooler is best for my car.

That is very interesting....wonder if my NPR I/C would be considered a "truck I/C" The guy covers allot of inportant points.....remembering he is selling I/C's so therefore he would naturally be trying to push his style. On the other hand if he built them he would naturally built the best type he could build!

I bought the NPR because @ $150 I got the best bang for the buck!!!

Thanks Brad

Wow Yasin!

 

That 260 looks real fast just standing still!

I have been off our hybridz site for awhile; torn between completing trim work on a few rooms in my house (which I promised my wife 18 years ago I would do) and buying a $250 88 Toyota MR2 (I would like to convert for AutoX).

Every time I start surfing this site again I just get goosebumps and want to get back to work on my Z's...(I bought a wrecked $300 88 300ZXT with the electronics to ungrade my 280zxT ECU and use MAS ) just gotta find time...as someone said...to many projects not enough time!

Brad;

call around at the salvage yards from time to time you may get lucky. But as the artical said watch out for unknown 2nd hand I/C's a wreck could have lodged some crap in it to later come out in your lovely engine!!!!
