Garrett Intercooler Does anyone know where I can have a vertical flow twin turbo application intercooler made up. Who can I talk to and get some prices. I'm talking about the setups like that treadstone or whatever it's called. I want a double density vertical flow core from garrett with the double inlets on the bottom with the big inlet coming out the top similar to a aps setup. Any help is appreciated. Thanks Chris

I'd guess the biggest problem you're probably going to have right now is sourcing a Garrett core. I've had a couple core sizes on order for months with no luck.

What data leads you to believe they are better? My Spearco had a Garret core and it was almost identical to my Bell, and Bell has a lot more size and thickness options to choose from.

Delta,
The parts swapping, comparisons, and testing my self and others have done throughout the years have proved they are better. I've never personally seen a Spearco built I/C using a Garrett core. Bell does have an awesome selection of core size available and that has come in handy for some of the bike stuff. But hands downs size for size a Bell core can not hold a candle to a Garrett unit.
IRC,
Garrett cores are made in Mexico in a plant owned by Honeywell. If you've ever actually held one of there cores in your hand you'd be able to tell a difference immediately.
