Cool i’ll do some research for more intercoolers then i’ll decide when you release this guys, thanks
I don't want to be a dick but why start a thread when it's been started a million times already then say you'll research? If you had just researched it before posting you'd see everyone says PRL/ HKS with a few getting mishimoto. I think 27won will be the best when released but this isn't breaking news.

I mean even anodizing it makes it less efficient. You'd always want bare metal to air for heat dissipation.
If you wanted efficiency to nth degree you could say so but in our market, the intercooler is also a big aesthetics mod for many. Coatings allow us a few things. It makes the product more durable from road debris and grime, it gives it much more visual appeal, and it prevents the core from becoming dull from corrosion.

Wagner is a nice option as well. Tube and fin. Dimensions are a little larger than HKS. Silicone hoses instead of hard pipe kit. It is black however ;)
