I don't think you would need much bigger IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem with the GTR cooler is adapting it to the Ford without too much cutting. If however you do need to cut, then there's no reason not to go for a proven product like the Nizpro or PW as Dillz mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just seems logical to get them to flow with the GTR design tanks, Although The Process west ones look alright until you look at the price, We don't all want to earn big bucks and live in West Island... Some of us like the lifestyle here....plenty of space too...If you hadn't picked it I'm in NZ so these items are not as easy to get as the JAPPA stuff too....(the price you pay I suppose)And HDI' website just frustrates me, I just don't know WTF I am buying....and HDI product looks beggar all better than the F6 one anyway...

I had the same feeling, having visited the Alibaba.com site, you can't help but feel all are made in China anyway...Even the "Aussie Ones" look identical to some suppliers ones there. And the true Jap stuff may actually be better (if those are not made in China too) just looking at the fin design of most IC's they just are not that great... we all bother to put 4" pipes on the inlet and outlet but then when you look inside the IC you start to think how can they flow efficiently...they are so restrictive.. a little bit more design on the flow of air into the tubes has to help (or take the GTR tank approach)Has anyone actually put a guage on either side of any of their IC's measuring both pressure drop and temp drop, at multiple boost pressures? How efficiebt are theyis adapting it to the Ford without too much cutting. Hence the question if the GTR would fit (maybe even upside down)???

I observed the other day how much metal had to removed just to fit a RAPID cooler. No way would I be doing that to my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
