I'm currently using Monza cooler and as most know they flow well but coooling not so good, I'm running standard piping. I've got actuator full exhaust inj fuel pump etc... At 12psi tune Monza seemed ok but now that I'm tuned @14psi intake temps too high and sacrificing torque, I've read alot of the post here on PW, plazmaman, rapid, nizpro intercoolers, and although alot of ppl seem to be more concerned about looks of ic, I really couldnt care less, as I'm a believer of function over fashion. Can anyone give a good reason based on performance ie flow and cooling as to which cooler they find to perform the best. All kits apply due to that I'm planning on changing piping.

Plenty of threads about it but you cannot go wrong with either Plazmaman or Process west. Both are tried and tested just have to decide which one you want and future mods you are going to do.

Nizpro is probably the best on the market, a bit more $$$ than the rest but you get what u pay for...

But the PW, Rapid and Plaz are also very good coolers, you can't go wrong with any of them

There latest one would be the one to get..

No analysis, isnt it known that it is a great cooler but they look like crap, the op doesn't care about looks just performance..

I think plazmaman has more high powered cars under their belt? Might be a coincidence, might not?

Work out whether you want bar and plate or tube and fin, should make the decision a bit easier.

From research I have been currently doing that this is an excellent cooler for a road car. Bar and Plate durability good capacity, and I also like inlet postioning, and core thickness. Although, I think it may be a little to big for 300rwkws.Very good for 500-600 rwhp. Aslo I'm not sure whether the vehicle requires cutting. Cheers
