Intercooling Options

I dont have to the Facts are out there. Like it or not. Im not saying there no good but look around there was just a huge post on club gp regarding. PRJ's core is a great core, Believe its the same thrasher uses.Its very expensive. Ive heard its comparable to zzps or W bodys stage two. All things being equal the fins better IMO. At least on these heatons. For a Heat exchanger bar and plate ftw

Here I did the research for you. Enjoy ClubGP Message Forum troubleshooting

Lol really? You're going to try to pull the "ZZP said so"? Since when does anyone on GPF listen to anything ZZP says? Ever heard of a Wizaired? ZZP says they are the best intake and everyone on here says HAI, why would you believe ZZP this time, because it selectively supports you on this point?

I dont even see ZZP in that thread? And anyone whos spoken to me knows how I feel torward ZZP's Products. If bar and plate was far superior dont you think they would have went with that design? But as Mickey states after 5 years of testing cores they didnt prove to be any better then the stupid ford probe heater core. But you know better I assume.

My fuel log with the FPR is already on the rear log. Is that not correct?

Why did you post a thread about a *****ing match that doesn't prove anything? Good research there buddy

Well what ever. It proves that people that Have researched, and tested many different cores say that it doesnt out perform the probe core. Sorry you get your pantys in such a bunch. Like I said. Is bar and plate better then tube and fin? absolutely. Is it better when your confined to small areas? not really. Im done arguing. But hey I hear if you spread that it is then it really is! Thats how forums work
 
Thrasher bar and plate I/C is number one.

ZZP probe core is number two.

Everyone else is after that.

But PRJ wasn't in that comparison AFIK

And if you knew how to read you would know that he said 5 years ago they researched it for 1 year, but you seem to have read that wrong. What evidence has he shown? Isn't it funny how Mickey never says one word about how his IC is superior to PRJ's bar and plate?

I'm not trying to start a *****ing match here, I'll let clubgp handle that. All I wanted to do was inform ppl that there is another IC option out there.

PRJ uses the same bar and plate as Thrashers, or so its siad. so that would in theroy put it 10ish degrees cooler then ZZP's S2 or wbodys Stage 2. IMO the cost of the bar and plate isnt worth it. If these cores had a large surface area then the BAR and plate would blow the tube and fin out of that water. But like I said 15 times already it doesnt. SO IMO tube and fin FTW for these cores. If you have money to toss around in then maybe it is. This is all/end

You can get a 2.25" core bar and plate from that IRC guy for $1050 for a complete kit.

If its legit, then I dont see how that wouldnt be the best solution cost included.

Exactly. How can you argue with that? All everyone says to argue is "its not big enough". Okay so you ask him to make it bigger, for the same price. /end

Really now? LOL! Not trying to be a tool here but all I did on clubGP was state to someone who was asking weather they should go "zzp, wbodystore, or other for I/C" was that I would go other due to the fact that the IRC has a lifetime warranty, will build it to your specs, has been making I/C's of tons of builds for 1000's of HP for WAY longer then ZZP or any other vendor has been around. I got jumped on for just stating that due to IRC not being a vendor on clubgp and they said I broke the rules for saying it. I was then accused of being the maker of the IRC core just trying to get sales by wbodystore. Aint that some BS! Try to help someone by telling them about a sale of a different I/C that works just as well as anything out there and got jumped on for no reason. Tool? Only its from helping someone with their question.:th_thumbsup-wink:
 


Just another quick post here to inform some of the readers about anything where someone is saying the IRC core might not work. There are some things being tossed around and only part of it is true to what is said...........
ZZP is the best out according to their testing. They have tested against everything on the market about 8 years ago they were actually #2 and admitted it cause the Thrasher bar & plate design was WAY ahead in the cooling department by some 20%+ over the 2nd place ZZP core. ZZP stated that they and no one else for that matter would probably ever go the bar and plate route due to the cost to make it at the time. The Thrasher core was something like $2500+ I guess so I can see why.
PRJ uses the same design but in a slide out removing design and has yet to be tested. It is cheaper then the Thrasher by some $1500 for the core.
The IRC can be made the exact same thickness as any of them for WAY less cost then people are paying and is far more efficient. The cores made of bar and plate do not need to be as large as the tube and fin to do the same cooling. This helps us in more ways then one. Weight being the main extra difference that most overlook. Its not tons of weight but at leased its something. LOL! The cost of the IRC complete kit can be had for about the same as the PRJ core alone which is great savings. The small group buy on gtpworld is not a huge savings but its $100 off of what he normally charges so I feel its a good deal.
So many ask why there is no where making stuff for our cars but yet when a place does things like what happened on clubgp with me getting banned for something stupid is why places don't want to deal with it. Most don't realize what clubgp charges for vendors and its outrageous. Farnsworth got kicked cause of it and wbodystore told me the cost and I about **** its just nuts to think that the forum that has not been updated in so many years thinks they should make a killing from members and or vendors. That site generates over $1300/mo which some people wish they made themselves. That is todays figures and back in the hay day it was $3K-$5K/mo. But yet has not been updated. Most try to say it cost money to run it cause of servers and so on but the servers are ran through Mikes day time job so he has no cost of running or any kind of overhead on that site so think about that for a while.
Not that any of this I/C stuff has anything to do with clubGP but just wanted to straighten a couple things out cause of me being a tool. :th_thumbsup-wink::th_peaceout:

You got shut down in simple debate.

On your own forum you did okay. :th_thumbsup-wink:

My understanding is that you failed to bring compelling evidence to support the effectiveness of the core you presented. The lowered cost relative to the other vendors is as of yet unexplained which raises concerns considering the thrasher was still two grand when they stopped selling it.

WBS guy flat out states he's not concerned about this interrupting his sales.

Will respond to this one shortly.

So on this page here:

http://www.clubgp.com/newforum/tm.asp?m=5389351

Someone who is NOT you says the Thrasher is 15* cooler than the ZZP.

ZPP claims 144* temp drop so the thraser system is 10.4% "bettered" than the ZZP.

the weight of my car changes by a lot more than 3 lbs depending on how much gas in there. It is NOT even worth bringing up. The air gap idea is the main advantage to this core... not the weight.

I am not even going to come close to asking why in the hell you quoted so many things in which when you read the whole thing actually you are with me for the most part other then I have not done a crap load of testing from my end when I have nothing to do with the IRC innercooler. I just own a forum not the innercooler. I don't see the need to do the research for you or anyone else but all that is needed is to do a little bit of searching for yourself and you will see that bar & plate is better for innercooling in just about every way but one and that one is that the flow is less going through the innercooler core compared to the tube and fin. Difference from that is null considering that the slower air going through means more timing and a smaller pulley can be added for more HP. Just do some research you will be surprised at some of the things you will find out.
Hell you don't even think I was banned from clubGP for some reason and it shows right here...........

I know allot of this seems to hard for you to completely comprehend right now cause it appears that you have blinders on sort of like a horse does at the track so you are only seeing the one thing you want in front of you instead of seeing the big picture right now. Nothing against you cause allot of people seem to get that way over time and its hard to break them off of it.

I never got shut down in a simple debate as that would mean that I have never replied with anything back after I was debated but yet I came back with the same stuff over and over. If you read the whole hidden post of which I don't think you have access to you might see that but since the mods have hidden it to keep it out of the fray then how can you have the whole idea what what is going on? I am not sure what you are looking at tho cause the stuff I am referring to getting into it with wbodystore is in a now hidden thread.

This is from that same thread you posted from clubGP which is the second post made by someone about this IRC I/C the one you posted is the second one and not the one I got banned from.
ORIGINAL: gtp tim
Im just pulling the info that i have seen off of his post on HIS forum(the guy u guys banned)! Why dont guys just ask the guy u banned about it?
Click to expand...

And this one is from that same thread but was from wbodystore..........
Because it cost $1500 more than ZZP IC when it was available. When you do modifications like this you need to consider what you're getting for your money. If you can get 90% of the performance of the Thrasher IC for less than half the price that's a deal 99% of people will make which is pretty obvious considering Thrasher's demise.
Click to expand...
So if you go by that and why he said that the ZZP core was better then why in the world wouldn't you think that having a bar & plate one that is lets say a good ballpark estimate of 90% of what ZZP does for a minimal of 1/2 the cost then why not? LOL! I mean I really don't see why some don't see this. LOL! PLUS you can make it to what ever thickness you want for better cooling to then still be less then 1/2 the cost again. I don't need to test this as the bar & plate was already proven to do better by ZZP themselves but was to pricey then but it is not anymore.

Weight being the main extra difference that most overlook. Its not tons of weight but at leased its something. LOL!

Nice that you brought up something else like that cause I never really took it into consideration but please don't act as if I was only talking about the weight it was just something that I brought up as allot of people are weight cutters for the track to some crazy extremes and I am sure you know that. LOL!

No **** they're a business. Who isn't?

I will start with the business part since I to run the same sort of site. I do not charge my members for anything other then raffles, and calenders. They are free to donate to the forum if they want to also but that doesn't happen to much.
I don't charge vendors either which is a ton of clubGP's money intake right now. Also the adds they have of which allot have figured out you can avoid them by not getting your mouse over the works on the pages with the red lines under them. Its an add service that pays clubGP's owner anywhere from .15 to .25 each time it shows up. I had thought at first that it had to be click but it doesn't according to the service that does it.
I know allot of this falls on def ears but its what 98% of the members over there are pissed about which is that money is made but nothing is done with the site to update it. Business or no business they need to take care of the members.

As for the not taking action against me that is something I am completely pissed about even though you are probably referring to the thread you posted which is not the one I was banned from and you can't see I don't think. In the first thread I have been referring to I was never confronted by any mods or admins at all period. I never even got a warning in my PM in which is their rules it states that they will warn a poster one time through PM and then after that they will be banned. I never got any kind of warning or message from anyone in the upper rank of clubGP so I do find it kind of ironic that they put on my profile that I wasn't following forum rules but yet they were not following the rules either by not warning me. Just a little messed up. LOL!
