Hey guys,
back in 2006 when I decided to build the motor on my 996TT, I experimented with intercooler cores and end tanks designs. Since then alot has changed.
Now I use molded one piece end tanks I developed as well as cnc machined flanges we make from scratch. I also make them to fit almost any end tank connection be it oem or 2.5" or even 3 piping. I use Bell cores and they have been great to me since 2006. My clients ran record 60 to 130s on the 3.5" on the k16 billets as well as a 5.35 second on the A28s. In texas heat another car made 1100 whp on the 4.5" ICs as well as I ran a hard to get 9 second run back in 2007 on these as well trapping upper 140 mph. My Kuwait client on the 997 is making well over 1200 whp with 3.8L on hta 3586s on syvtec. Currently, my car is trapping 155 mph and running 9.6s and 9.8s all day long with the custom 6" intercoolers and thats on race gas without meth. As a matter of fact non of the cars mentioned were on meth for cooling or E85.
Although its been an on going debate on the forums, this is not about starting an argument and or hijacking threads. I'm just sharing my product as well as the results... my intercoolers are pressure tested to 35 psi before they are shipped. We use 13 bars across and maximize the available space and the 4.5" cores come in 2 options- one cools better meanwhile the other flows more volume. Depending on the application, you get to pick what will work best for you.
here are some pics of the 3.5" and the 4.5" ICs before they are finalized.
thanks for looking...

You have certainly put together some solid products. It's good to see vedors being involved in the community. I am glad that if I wasn't in a position to build all my own components that I could purchase solid products at a good price.
btw can i ask you who made 5.2 on a28 without meth only 3.5IC cooling? wanna see that 60-130 graph
i only see layinback 5.35 your last customer on alpha28 ?

I don't want this to start into drama like on the k16 billet thread. Yes it was on 3.5" no meth. I'll have to look it was in the 5.2s I'm sure. My point : even if it was lets say 5.4 seconds that's still a great number on the 3.5"ics non meth. That's my point.
Edit: it was a 5.35sec your right... over 2 years ago I just found the graph.
here's a 4.21 sec no meth... My car... 6" ICs... and did O to 160 mph on street in 10 seconds... etc.... same ICs... no meth no e85 just c16...

well the point is who did 5.2 ?any setup detail? race gas? any graph?
No point lets just leave it at 5.35 seconds. Still stout on 3.5" no meth.
When he converted to pro Efi with 3071s he kept the same ics.if memory serves me correctly he was on e85 and ran 4.4s but I would have to check to see what it was exactly.
