LightningXR6T Member 197 Member For: 19y 10m Location: Newcastle NSW Posted 26/08/06 07:03 AM Author Share Posted 26/08/06 07:03 AM (edited) Maybe a stupid question, but I will ask it anyway! Does a cooler that has more tubes between tanks work better than one with less? OK I can already here some of you guys calling me names. For example a PWR has 21 tubes the air passes through, yet the Herrod unit has only 16 tubes (obviously why there is a price difference aswell). From what I understand both of these are quite respected units.

Fat-Tony Member 5,364 Member For: 19y 1m 10d Posted 26/08/06 08:14 AM Share Posted 26/08/06 08:14 AM (edited) NO basically you need more cooling surface area, hence the more fin area you have both internaly and externally the more cooling capacity you have. hence you more air that can pass through the cooler you more heat transfer you will haveOHHHHH and the herrod cooler is just as good as the wogs Edited 26/08/06 08:15 AM by Fat-Tony Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/27902-pwr-coolers/page/4/#findComment-426847 Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what you are saying is that even though the Herrod/Wog cooler has less tubes, they are of a larger size therefore are similar in cooling surface to the PWR unit!

Fat-Tony Member 5,364 Member For: 19y 1m 10d Posted 26/08/06 08:54 AM Share Posted 26/08/06 08:54 AM No im saying that if you have more cooling surface from teh same size intercooler you will therefore get a better heat trasfer hence better cooling. NO IM SAYING WOG IS BETTER THAN PWR, just making a genral refernce in interooler design.Herrod use wog coolersAnd lets not start another stupid debate about the PWR vs WOG cooler thanks, im sure adam has better things to do than clean crap out of this thread Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/27902-pwr-coolers/page/4/#findComment-426854 Share on other sites More sharing options...
