Question Twin high flow intercooler worth the upgrade?

http://www.exoticperformanceplus.com....html?item=134

I have really been interested in this kit and I was wondering if upgrading the intercooler would be worth it. Since my engine is mainly stock I will start off with low boost and I was wondering will the high flow intercooler even make a difference in a low boost situtation?

ATI Procharger P-1SC HO is the kit I'm looking at getting. The page just has a chart at the bottom that shows multiple models.

Depends on were you really want to go and what you will be happy with...... me my goals are probably alot higher then yours so i knew from the stock i wanted more then a base kit...... the D1-SC kit will make more power hands down..... Alot of us have ditched the stock POS twins and went with a large FMIC. If you are evn thinking about wanting to upgrade down the road.. go with the D1-SC......

Can the D1-SC start off at low boost setting? I remember reading on another board the lowest setting is 12PSI.

no no man.... its all in relation on how fast you spin the blower.
When i first had my kit i had a small ababy cam 212/218 .522/.529 on a 114LSA and LT's no cats, LS6 intake and the D1-sc with a 6 rib pulley setup.. the stock crank and a 4" blower pulley i saw 4psi @ 6000 rpm's. I wouldnt run over 8 psi on a stock motor and i would but nothing but the 8 rib pulley setup from ATI or the SDCE spring tensioned 8 rib setup.... room to grow for later down the road and no belt slip.
