that's not the pt if he used race gas. The pt is that he was able to make that kind of whp with the same intercooler.

With high enough octane and short enough pull, he coulda made those numbers with no IC at all.

The larger IC will keep the temps in check much better on the street. just make sure the radiator is up to the task of keeping the engine cool when that much more of its airflow is blocked by more intercooler.

A larger IC will get you cooler intake temps and if you are running a upgraded blower it will increase air flow


Im sure GTM made a good tune on Sentry's car . But lets be real , thier DynoJet reads much higher than any other on this site . And on 11psi ...who else has even gotten close to that ?

Seeing as the precison core in my size would by 850$! (http://www.nolimitmotorsport.com/prod/AA1108), I think mine will work just fine

was that custom IC ever flow tested? End tanks dont look like they'd flow very well?

Flow'd enough for almost 800rwhp where we stopped. lol

I think the cores are more restrictive than the endtanks, but I'm not positive on that.

I told Chris to put his mouth over the outlet of it during a pull, but he wouldn't do it.
