What InterCooler To Buy?
Been making tons of phone calls and digging for proof of the best intercooler. I have a stock turbo but might go FP red shortly down the line. I want hard facts of best cooling with preasure drop numbers. Seems every company tells you theres is best. I have searched through threads tons of times and just want everyones opinion and how they like what they have.

The only way you're going to hard "real" hard facts is if someone had all of these intercoolers, hooked up probes at the inlet and outlet and was able to measure pressure drop, inlet and outlet temps etc. What you will get is everyones opinion based on what they bought etc.
There are a few other companies like AGP, Greddy & HKS that aren't on your poll though that have good intercoolers. For me fit and finish along with performance is important to me. I have the AGP unit and liked it because they use Spearco bar and plate cores, it has cast endtanks and it fit behind the bumper without any cutting. If you plan on keeping the factory undertray you may want to know which of these will fit with it without trimming or removal and which won't. The AGP doesn't fit without trimming but I have a Beatrush undertray so that was not an issue for me.
