Re: Where to get nice cheap new intercooler (Corinthians)
Tube and fin pls. Bar and plate doesn't have enough internal area to really grab onto and remove excess heat from the charge. Sure, the bar and plate designs "flow" better, but I'd rather "make more power with more safety." Temps are much more important than irrelevant hp per psi.
12" may be too tall. I have a couple friends with 11" units that brush against the undersides of their headlights. No problems with the botttom of the IC hitting anything... you could probably go 12" if you aren't excessively lowered and don't go offroading, but that's on you.
Edit: IM user "OverblownTeg," he's got one of the 11" tall units on his GSR, and has installed a few... since I'm a punkass CRX owner, you're going to get the best Integra advice from an Integra owner
