Intercoolers
Been having heat soak problems on the track. Have flash. After a few laps ECU starts pulling car back. I end up with faster times in the long run without flash. Switched to stock airbox from open design. No difference. Put in 100 octane and car became consistent and fast. Most importantly, consistent.
Anyone here running aftermarket ICs on the track? I have X50 package with GT2 ICs. Is this worthwhile mod versus what I have now?

with just about any of the intercoolers out there you will see an improvement on the heat soak over the current intercoolers you have.
I would go with a higher end core design like a BELL core no chineese cores apply to race tracks =)

We use ONLy Bell cores... our 4.5" cores are proven up to 1100 rwhp... our direct replacement Bell 3.5" intercoolers do not need expensive after market hoses and are priced reasonably.... made per order in house... we even can make them fit after market hoses with 2.25" or 2.5" OD tubing.
here is some info on it...

Based on the other thread and replies here, it seems to be a worthwhile investment.
