Well done sir!When you say it won't work as well with smaller piping, are you refering to the 2.5 inch piping commonly used? What and how drastic would that affect performance? Would it reduce flow to such an extent as to affect the cooling capabilities increasing charge air temps? Or would it increase pressure drop? Or a bit of both? I am very intersted as I am on the market for full IC, piping and plenum kit. Possibly exhaust as well. I've talked the the "big 3" and everyone has an opinion but I'd love to see some reall tests conducted fairly by an impartial 3rd party.I'd put up some bucks for this also. If it finally puts things into perspective and sheds some light on reality for everyone then, I'd put up $100.

I see he also recommends a rigid plenum (cast or billet...not sheet) for best results.My stage 3 cooler is around the corner.Kev Please explain why the bar and plate is better than a fin and tube . Explain what you correct fin spacing is , and we really want to here this one ....... why is cast or billet plenum better than a sheet alloy style ?? Come on champ , lets here it ......
