Hey, guys wondering on opinions with the BF Nizpro intercooler vs Process West Intercooler. At the stage of deciding which way to go. Only want to make around 350kw with supporting mods but with room to move in the later future, so will be pluming into standard crossover for now. Would love to see some photos of both and opinions from people who have gone down either path. Haven't seen much of the nizpro so eager to see some :)

Went through the same choice not long ago. Nizpro is a bigger cooler, a little bit more pricy, doesnt scream bling, works well.

Process west is smaller, looks nicer, a tad cheaper, also works well and also has the option of the throttle body relocation, not just plenum. But IMO the nizpro plenum and intake looks the best and my tuna reccomends their gear so that's what I went with

Recommendations on Nizpro big big cooler? & assuming your not going to utalise a nizpro plenum, they do make a cold side pipe to suit?

Photos anyone?

Nizpro are offset like factory items so give the front an assymetrical appearance. I use the older cooler (before "big big") which was on a 400rwkw car but it's black so not noticeable to others ;) but not helpful for pics...

PW is centered and has the bling factor for that reason - inlet and outlet both at bottom corners.

Oh and yeah I have cold side piping to stock crossover.

For your goal either can do the job, I have the PW Stage 2.2 and it is more than enough to meet the demands of a maxed out GT3540.

I liked the throttle body relocation so I went that way.

I run the ProcessWest 2.2 kit, with the hot side piping and I'm extremely happy. The piping comes powder coated black and I sprayed the cooler Matt black for a sleeper look. I think it makes the engine bay look a whole lot neater too

Mika, did you polish your cooler? & it looks like yours is quite centered which I like. I love the look of the Processwest and agree it does look neater and is slightly cheaper. The only thing that's keeping me away from the nizpro is where the battery is located on the cold side. Im assuming this is due to the high mounted cold side outlet?, only because I don't think I will be doing a plenum I'm the 'near future'
