the importance of getting a nice one?

you do know i'm going for the looks here!

 

If you want it 'all on show' go for HKS, APS, TRUST ETC, if you want it hidden go for PACE.

Everyone has their own views on 'performance' of these bits o kit, some say bar and plate is best....research

 

thanks.. how do these help compared to standard ones?

 

Two types are available,
plate and SHELL
and Extruded tube,

extruded tubes tend to be more efficient where as the plate type tends to offer less flow resistance.

never seen a charge cooler on a scooby, wonder why ?
perhaps it's a plumbing nightmare ?

 

hmm...

do you think it is better than an air/air intercooler
what is it on then ?
was it a biatch to fit ?
is it more compact than air/air?

charge cooler on my car and it is a legacy lol ,pound for pound i would go for the charge cooler every time more work to fit than an intercooler but worth it

 

Chargecoolers are more consistent than air/air IC's, certainly for a car in "real" conditions, but an FMIC will show better figures on a dyno (only due the air they direct onto an FMIC).

Pace do a universal chargecooler kit that they claim keeps intake temps down to 30C for about £500, half the price of their FMIC kit.
