Rick, if you run enough water flow through them they work great. The guy who owns the turbo Nova from drag week ran the same core at mid 8's and mid 160mph trap speeds so that's over 1100hp.

The other advantage is more weight is kept behind the front axle instead of leveraged over it way out in the nose, and the induction piping is shorter.

Another option is to run an extra evaporator core that chills the intercooler water and used on demand but since I already have 2 a/c systems I think that would be asking too much of the compressor/condenser.

For a road race car that will see continual wide open throttle use I think air/air is definitely the way to go for the most efficiency.


Donny, the same place that did all of my other chrome parts (Custom Metal Finishing in Indiana) looked into getting the anodes for the wheels and said they could do them no problem
