which intercooler?
I have the large ebay intercooler with the 3in in/outlets and I have a spearco intercooler from the turbonetics turbo kit(in car now).
My new set up is sleeved gsr 9:5:1
Ctr cams gsr head daul valve springs
T3/blowzilla turbo. 15-20psi daily
The car is going to be used as a weekend warrior
I called turbonetics and they stated that it is effective up to 500hp.
Both intercoolers are bar& plate designs. I'm not sure if I should stick with the spearco or use the larger intercooler off of ebay.
Thanks

Stick with the spearco that's in the car until you upgrade the turbo, other wise the larger intercooler will increase lag a little.

The set up I described is going into the car this week. I had the spearco with a t3/t4 turbo. I'm upgrading to the blowzilla with the sleeved motor and I'm not sure which intercooler to use.

It would help to know a little more about the intercoolers before asking questions like this....inlet and outlet diameter dont determine ****...

Re: which intercooler? (urbansi)
Its the large one from ebay 31X20 somethingX3.5 I'm at work so I can't measure it now. If you've been on ebay I'm sure you know what it looks like
the spearco is the one that comes with the turbonetics turbo kit. Pics can be found on turbonetics web site

Man U FTW
Precision 600hp IC....but if you're picking between those two, just use whatever has a larger cooling area...either one should work just fine. Make sure to check the fins/inch
