size/hp rating on FMIC
I am curious if anyone can tell me a formula for finding hp vs size on a front mount intercooler. I am trying to see what hp a cooler will be efficient to.
The size is: 29" x 8" x 3.5" without the outlet lengths included.
According to research, this fmic can efficiently power until 450whp.
Suggestions, comments?

Re: size/hp rating on FMIC (Si Integra)
there are many determining factors but first is cross sectional flow and the other is the design of the intercoolers . Some cores are moer efficeint that others.

Re: size/hp rating on FMIC (b18bturbo)
Well, it is a bar and plate design. It is one that rev hard used to make. I called them and they told me the fmic was efficient to over 500whp and could efficiently hold nearly 600 before it would need upgraded.
I just prefer a few other opinions before deciding if I am going to settle on this.
