Default Intercooler type?
I was looking into getting this intercooler for my build (Stock LS3 long block, EPP blower cam, LT's, D1SC @~8-9psi). The size seems right, but what does the "Type 2" mean?

As said above there are a lot of guys running the CXracing intercoolers on here. For the money they are a great buy. I am running the 24x12x4 core but it does take a little work to get it to fit.
