Re: Show me your custom made Intercoolers :) (wade)

what thickness do you guys use for aluminum endtanks? Also what kind of aluminum do you use for the endtanks?
I'm going to use 5052AL just because I can get it easier and more varieties of thickness at work.

why is it designed like that? Seems like it would flow poorly compared to something like a precision endtank or those long tapered ones tony1 makes.
