typically, the ic with the higest cooling efficiency has high flow restriction. bar and plate ic's have this characteristic. it cools really well but it causes relatively higher boost drop and is down on response. tube and fin ic's on the other hand flow really well but have lower cooling efficiency. so far, arc's directional ic appear to me to have the least flow restriction but i don't think they cool as well as the much heavier items from hks.Originally posted by CcL@Jun 30 2004, 06:49 AM
which i/c has the most cooling efficiency??
until now still deciding what i/c to use...
the stock one is hidden between the aircond and radiator... super hot!
was thinking of a 2jz since its cheap...
how is its performance??
anyone knows?

y selling? those stuff has been with me since 2000!! old stuff.. my fren changed to ARC.. so he past me his, and his spare unit for keeping..and never bothered to take it back.. so it's in my store..all dusty and dirty..but the condition of it is still superb... no fins bent...
wat do u mean?dun understand laa..btw,anybody knows this company,frc?making custom intercooler..Seen that car before. Real crazy ass mofo. My wife's Sabahan so ... I think I've seen that car before.
The bigger the intercooler, the less responsive the engine gets as it takes more time to fill up a big intercooler than a small one.Originally posted by Danny@Jul 2 2004, 04:25 PM
bigger/ more efficient intercooler = cooler air = more responsive = less lag
smaller/ less efficient intercooler = hotter air = less responsive = more lag
