Default One Side In/Out Intercooler--Anyone Tried Them?

The air has to make a 180, but it looks like it might fit well for me. . . Anyone got any experience with this type of a design?:

Thanks!

It's pretty much the worst intercooler design you could possibly come up with. lol It's essentially a 44" long 4" tall intercooler. Height and thickness is what you want, not length.

Alright, scrap that idea then!

I am curious why that is the case though. . . Is it something that can be explained in a fairly brief fashion?

Thanks! ! !

as i was reading the post, i knew i remembered tony having something to say about and i was right it was along the lines of that.

if you need a one side one side out, look at the full race k motor vertical intercooler.

Is something like that better than a vertical flow core style? Now I'm REALLY confused!

EDIT: that sure is some beautiful work. . . .
