Default 27"x7"x3" IC core support 800hp?

I found an intercooler kit and was wondering if the size above would support 800hp? He said he thinks it was made by precision, and is a bar and plate intercooler.

It just seems small compared to some of the others I have seen and I want to make sure it will support the amount of HP I am planning on making.

Thanks!

I ran out of time last night to finish everything I wanted to say.. The guy I am buying it from was told it was made by precision and it would support 900. It has a 3" inlet and outlet and has the cast ends on it.

I am not doubting the seller's word, just wondering if maybe he was misled, with this one being smaller than the other's I have seen.

Could it be that this is a really efficient IC and will support 800-900 RWHP? Is it possible for an IC of this size to flow that much?

I would be getting a complete kit that has everything I need, I just want to make sure that it will do what I need it to.

Do you know if it will fit your application? 'coolers for a Firebird won't fit a Camaro for example.

It came off a TA. What would the difference be?

The mounting tabs were welded on and it bolts to some existing holes.
