I know they can work...but I just dont get how short short tubes can cool very well. Yes, the air may slow down more through the tubes as there are more of them...but even still.

gosh 800rwhp, do you have every other supporting mod needed or are you just going to throw all the power to the car just to say it.

run the ebay, spend the extra money on trying to get the car to hook with 600rwhp on the street, also i wouldnt run 800rwhp on pump gas alone. 800 would be my cut off WITH METH and 93. any more and put some good gas it in.

$6.00 100-110 octane is cheaper then new motors.

Do you guys have any pressure drop data on ebay intercoolers? I al also using ebay 24x12x3.5" core, but when I installed it I saw a huge drop in boost and, of course, in power. Boost in manifold dropped from 8psi to just 5psi at 6000rpms. I imagine it would loose much more psi/power when boost is raised

I never saw more than a 1.5-2 psi drop at 12lbs using a 31"x12"x3" eBay unit. Core size was 24"x12"x3".
