Okay, first let me say that I do believe spearco makes the best core's as far as intercoolers go. They ARE proven on many racecars.

Now I am going to attempt to stir the pot a little bit.

Does anyone here have proof beyond a reasonable doubt that a spearco core significantly reduces intake temps more than a similar sized "ebay" intercooler. Beyond that, do you have proof that in the real world it is actually making a difference? Like drop in ET's, higher MPH, significantly less detonation, you get the picture.

From what I have seen, some of the "ebay" core's look IDENTICAL to a evotion intercooler core, down to spacing on the fins and sizes of the tubes.

And, if we want to go even farther then that. Lets say a ebay core makes 500whp on a car, and with a nice spearco core it makes 520whp, is it really worth the extra 300plus dollars for the spearco?
