ahhh!!! i don't know which one i should get. 1 theres the JRC which i've heard that is cheap and reliable and many good things said about it. 2 theres the precision that has nothing but good things said about it. which one do i get? im gonna be runninng a sc50, rc 550's, hondata, neukin mani, prolly lookin around 300hp. so thats either the JRC 6" or the precision 350. i don't know, help me!

 

how can go be torn between a jrc and a precision intercooler?thats like...not knowing if you need to take a crap or a ****...

get the precision

haha. bad analogy b/c both actions are not desired. but funny

 

Obviously go with the JRC 8" intercooler, flows better, way cheaper, taller which leaves room for upgrades

Upgrade something else, go with a stainless d/p or invest it in some tuning

Why waste money when it isnt necessary

 

the jrc flows better than the precision?whaaatt

 

precision definitely flows better than jrc, look at the cores. I was/am thinking about getting a jrc 8" but i dont know how efficiently it will support over 400hp....

 

the 6" went over 400whp, the 8" will go higher

Your paying for the prescion name. Paying ALOT

 

hmmm, i might sell my drag3 and get one of the 8" models. for 195 you cant go wrong

 

Well, saying an intercooler can go over a certain amount of hp is great but IAT temps make a difference also.

 

true, from looking at the cores, one can assume that the jrc cools quite well, given the fin density. of course, it might not be as free flowing as the precision core.

 

That's true

 

so i guess you could look at it like this.

buy the jrc, save a few bucks and run a tad bit more boost to make up for the pressure drop (which is which is around .5)

buy the precision, pay out the ***, get an even lower pressure drop than jrc, something around .2psi, oh, cant forget teh cool precision logo on the endtanks, lol

 

actually the new cores are 2.75" thick, 3.25"at the endtanks

 

i've had both a 6 inch johnnyracecar and now i have a precision 350 hp capable IC.
the johnnyracecar was fine... but the material was soooo thin and weak.. i remember the fins could bend with the slightest touch pretty much- i remember pulling it out of the packaging.. having the fins hit the carboard box.. and then denting a bunch of fins...
the precision IC however is very heavy duty... I definately think i could bend the JRC IC in half if i felt like it.. but i doubt i could with the precision IC


keep in mind this was an older JRC, but people have said the newer ones are nicer.... but i have yet to see it...

 

well, decided to go with the precision 350 hp IC. got a great deal couldn't pass it up. 275 shipped! let you guys know how everything turns out.

 

precision/garrett cores are badass.....can't go wrong w/ it
