Who besides Garrett makes Intercooler Cores?

    Garrett seems to be the gold standard when it comes to IC cores but they don't list anything that will fit.

    There are a lot of companies that list cores but none seem to be able to give me efficiency data only a rating based on HP which doesn't tell me anything about how efficient it is. A 5" tube can flow enough for high HP but it's cooling efficiency will be nil and I currently have a Treadstone TRTT9 but it's not cooling well enough.

    Who else makes HIGH QUALITY and EFFICIENT IC cores besides Garrett?

    I need a 4.5" wide core that is Vertical Flow, about 8"-9" tall and 20"-24" long OR I can weld two cores together vertically that still equal this size for twin turbos.

    It's going in a 2002 TT Mustang.

    2nd for bell, you can call them and talk to someone about your setup also. I did that when I was sizing one and noticed that their cores were rated about double compared to their size. Called up and went through the numbers and it was right.

    Precision. I ran the biggest core I could fit. My air temps will stay 5-10* max above ambient temp at the end of a run. Cooler is heavy. 35-40lbs.

    Good info on Bell Intercoolers!
    I see the size I can use so I will CAD up my idea on tanks and see if I can get something to fit.

    Thanks Gents!

    You generally use multiple cores to get something that fits best.
