There is a pic on here somewhere with VWJeffs car with it and the crash beam installed.

Hands down the Race is the best money can buy!

And Daves tests arent flawed, Ive seen him run his tests, he straps it down and runs it just like he does every car on the dyno. He just gives the straight facts. His testing is why he has so many 9 second customers and why his car is so fast. Their stuff simply works amazing!
The busher race intercoolers are for very high HP cars, almost everyone make more then one size intercooler. Different cores for different power levels.

Didn't dave do an intercooler comparison?

The only testing I have seen with our intercooler vs the AMS intercooler is on the Lancer UK board. The test was completed by Wallace Per4mance. I don't have a link since i'm not at work right now. We plan to have our testing done shortly. Our shop car is almost back together and testing should begin shortly along with a couple new things =)

We offer a couple different sizes ranging from 3" for the everyday moderate boost driver to a 6" core for the hard core drag racer.

If you have any questions regarding our intercooler or what intercooler would work best for you. Send me a PM!

Thanks everyone!

Michael

I'm running with the ETS Front Mount and Piping and it works great. I've only notice a 1 psi drop in boost. Not that it's going to change much.
