Markskis intercoolers look like works of art!

 

For most guys running moderate power the EVO's are excellent (better end tank design than most other 3.5 inchers). However they are a touch pricey. A guy bought mine for 1.3K and if you can get a deal like that, jump.

For big power marks are good and my new Proto 5 inchers saw IAT's absolutely constant (barely budged a degree) after 30 minutes of hard pulls (albeit it was only 53 degrees out).

 

I want to see some graphs as well...

After some research I decided on Markski's intercoolers. They have Bell cores, are 4.5 inches thick, made of 304SS and are amazing pieces. They are handmade here in the USA (Chicago). It is the last intercooler I'll ever need and they're very well priced. It was a no brainer for me.

 

How much did these intercoolers reduced your IAT's ?

 

I have never seen intercoolers made from 304SS

 

I couldn't tell you. My car isn't on the road yet. It's receiving it's finishing touches and getting tuned as we speak.

 

I guess the question for a guy like me who has ZERO interest in ever going beyond the limits of the current "old style" K16/24 turbos and my UMW software tune, and who is only interested in roadcourse applications, what's the best bang for the buck? Also, who has the best solution given the existing OEM ducting? Vendors can PM me offline if they don't want to post prices here...

I have both stock 3.5x9x14(biggest possible fit) replacement BELL bar &plate ICs using STOCK hoses( no need for expensive aftermarket hoses) as well my 4.5x9x12 ICs as on some 1000-rwhp cars... We make them per order per spec...
here are the pics...








There are a few major restricitions on the stock ICs... take a look during R&D pics)
Your only using the center of Ic on the inlet side of the endtank... I opened them .... so we decided to actually use the full 9" wide endtank as in my pics....










and here are the BIG boys... On Rob MDs 1100rwhp car among others...









And here are the 6 inch big boys....

 

My mistake, my jet lag is showing. The ICs are not 304ss. The headers I have are however.

 

I'd like to see more temp testing honestly. Pressure drop would also be nice but not easy to do. What can I say - I'm a data junky and I've just about got my bills paid off. Muahahaha!

 

Mike,

I think the EVOMS hard pipe kit is the best for OEM ducting alternatives. It's very tough and will not fail under extreme usage. As you know, their IC's are highly regarded, too. I'll PM you some pricing on these items...

 

I know it's 2 different cars but I found a graph from an Evoms 700 car with Evoms IC's and my car has K16/24 with FVD flash.
Both runs are made in 4th gear.
Evoms run outside temp. was 28 degrees celcius and AIT raised till 51 degrees so this is 23 degrees higher than outside temp.
My run outside temp. was 0.75 degrees and AIT raised till 11.3 degrees so this is 10.55 degrees higher than outside temp.
A friend of mine makes IC's for a famous German tuner and all testing is done on my car.

Evoms run:


My run:

 

This pretty good figure , can you send me an Pm with the prices .

Merci

 

why your end tanks are so quadrangle??? it's producing a lot of back pressure.

below pictures of coolers secan class.....you have never seen such effective coolers......
