we’ve both got pretty much the most efficent/powerful intercoolers you can buy besides the garrett 4.5 core.
we have the garrett 3.8 (1000hp core) buschur race intercoolers, back to back to back highways pulls 20-120, 40-120, dig runs you could put your hand on the intercooler and it was cold as ice. same goes for at the track, the intercooler would be cooler than before i even made the pass.
you also have to look at weight, a waic conists of the core, heat exhanger,hose for the heat exchanger, the water, the pump, the intercooler pipes… it adds up and im sure it weighs almost double to what our intercoolers weigh alone…
awic aren’t nessecary for us, our cores work well enough for over 160mph in 1/4mi, proven by buschur/awd, stm, etc…
the research has been done, no need to reinvent the wheel really.
