[QUOTE="Wojciech Gierczynski, post: 1483716, member: 40561"] From what I was reading from one user CVF intercooler did good at WOT to keep temps down but the rest of the time had stock-like performance, sometimes hotter then stock. The reason I was skeptical about CVF numbers (supposedly 40°F difference between CVF and stock) is that Garrett Intercooler which is almost 30% larger then CVF (also stock location) has about 25°F difference to stock intercooler. Mishimoto which is around 10% larger then CVF and about 20% smaller then Garrett has about 15°F difference to stock. So in order for CVF Intercooler to have 40°F difference it would have to be 20% larger then Garrett one which would be twice the size of stock or it would have to have twice the density of Garrett Intercooler (which wouldn't be so great because it would definitely limit air flow) P.S. Those are the numbers he posted so it looks like CVF Intercooler was about 20°F less then stock at WOT which is nowhere near 40°F they are claiming. He also stated that when he tested Wagner it was 5°F warmer then when he tested the other two so that would put Wagner IAT2 even lower. His post: Ok, here is the initial datalog. These are AIT2 (charge air temps post IC) from 3 different Intercoolers. The top is the Wagner, middle is CV Fab, and the bottom is OEM. The Wagner drops from 125 degrees driving around then at a stop, to 105 at wide open throttle from 0-60, reaching 105 degrees just over 60mph. At 63mph, temps climbed and reached 115 degrees at 95mph. Comparatively, the CVF drops from 125 to about 110 and climbs to about 113 during a similar run. Stock - 122 degrees drops to about 109 at WOT from 9mph - 43 mph, then climbs up to 134 at 85mph! This...is why the stock IC is poor and causes heat soak. [/QUOTE]
