[QUOTE="nikhsub1, post: 1854709, member: 22952"] I wouldn't. It's a tube/fin construction which is not preferred IMO. Bar/plate is the way to go in air to air intercoolers. Personally I'd go with a Garrett IC if you are doing stock location. *edit - adding context here instead of just why I prefer one over the other. Tube/fin designs can work well, but they are not as robust (strong) as bar and plate. They can't handle as much boost either. IMO durability is priority one, and bar/plate wins that hands down. With that said, tube/fin are much lighter, but in the raptor the weight difference is meaningless, especially with a small stock location IC. Wagner does make excellent intercoolers, they make them for many other models of vehicles and they are highly regarded. You will see race cars using tube/fin simply to keep weight down. Anyway, you really can't go wrong with the Wagner but for me, I'd always opt for bar/plate due to better durability and IMO, Garrett makes the best bar/plate cores in the world. [/QUOTE]
