might wana try the FI forum, its not so much the size as the design of the IC itself in addition to end tank location

the size is only one thing in the calcs,


Things u have to consider are,
1/how much heat do i wanna transfer......and
2/how much restricton do i wanna have to flow.

its always a compremise between surface area, core design, and how much atmosphere airflow u want to have.

to explain this further its u can have an intercooler core that flows big airflow (capable of lots of hp) but its heat transfer charactoristics are shit, and vise versa.
