ETS has recently redesigned their IC cores. In your opinion is endtank design more important than core design and heat exchange efficiency when comparing intercoolers?

Quality doesn't come cheap. The cast endtanks AMS uses isn't cheap to produce. The welds are top notch. I've had ETS, swapped it for a JMF. Prolly would have done the AMS also. Only downside is the weight of the AMS and JMF. ETS weights significantly less. I'm not all that impressed with the ETS cores, but thats just my opinion.

thats the problem, there are quite a few great intercoolers out there and a lot of "opinion" on whats the best. post#2 is about the most helpful though. it really depends on the power goal. buschur, cbrd, ams, ets and a couple others all make great intercoolers, some just work better for different applications and power levels.

^ I know. I'm laughing at all the opinions posted.
Here's mine...
Buy an OBX ebay intercooler! It's 3.5" thick, has a great looking core, and is less than half the price of the ETS. BEST BANG FOR THE BUCK!
