Default japspeed fmic v aps

lookin for some advise,i have a japspeed fmic fitted but have the chance of a aps one at a good price so the japspeed has 13 bars and the aps has 11.i know aps are expensive but compared 13b v 11b the aps is smaller.so keep the japspeed or buy the aps.

intercoolers are all about internal efficiency, i suspect you will find the aps is much better internal design so works better, im not sure you will see huge gains though.

We're run Japspeed core at 490bhp without the problem,if you are not looking go above 550bhp

What model of the APS you are looking?

APS DR 525 or DR 725?

dr 725,not sure whether to fit with current set up ie gt30 standard position with supporting mods runnin 411bhp/349lbs as it mite create a bit more lag due to the massssssssive size of the fuuuuukr.
or wait untill forged in the future(no time soon,miby next year)

Has anyone done back to back testing? At what point do the cheaper ones start to loose out to the four figure ones?
