[QUOTE="bbka, post: 2168881, member: 570536"] Actually he is kinda correct. Example, let's say you have a 2 intercoolers that are the same brand, type, design, etc... one can support 500whp and the other can support 700whp. If your only making 300whp and you have the smaller of the 2 intercoolers, getting the bigger intercooler won't make any difference. I think that's what he was trying to get at about the intercooler not adding power. All an intercooler is intended to do is cool the air down, so of course you car will have a little more power with it, but I wouldn't consider that a power adder. If it was 100 degrees outside one day and 70 degrees out the next day your car would have a little more power, would you consider a "colder day" a power adder? I sure wouldn't lol. Power adders are turbos, superchargers, and nitrous... Here's a good article on intercoolers, since this thread is already way off topic...
