    Hmmmmm gt turbo intercooler

    Was just searching eBay you know as you do and I came across this.

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/300944915160?

    Most odd if you ask me.

    Aesthetically pleasing perhaps but maybe not that efficient. Who knows though, perhaps it's an awesome trick that we've all been missing out on

    I'd have to agree with something being missing.

    Never seen anything like it before It must flow a huge amount of air through the core it but must be very inefficient.

    It might be ok... if you're running standard boost.

    Can't see that working at all, better off running your boost pipes out the front of the car

    It wouldn't work.

    You wouldn't buy a radiator without fins would you.

    You've seen it before. hope it wasn't a turbo pac's uprated intercooler . I guess there's not much cooling going on so it would just bet a uprated "Inter"

    I guess you could box it in in with a removable panels and fill it with ice before 1/4 mile runs that might work.

    That or plate the sides and run water through it like a charge cooler with the added bonus of it being in direct airflow

    Same here. I'm sure it was posted on the old site, as it was up for sale every week
