Having the hardest time researching intercoolers. I plan on having custom piping done and am in the market just for a core. I dont mind spending a grand or so on a core alone, but information on intercoolers is so hard to find. Can anyone help me out?

-Thanks in advance

The "bar and plate" (precision) cores are more efficient at dissipating heat but also weigh more than the "tube and fin" (Greddy, Spearco) setups.

most efficient ones are water/air coolers, but it requires quite a lot of work. It all depends on what you want it for.

Water/Air for a dedicated track car. If its a DD, or is driven often you really can't go wrong with a Greddy or a HKS. You can get either or 2nd hand for under 800. But new my GReddy kit I paid 1200 for.

It depends on what exactly your goals are ext.
