i would love to test the point you have just put forward if it proves me wrong then so be it but i dout it tbh lol..
whats to say the air enters the top of your cooler gets shot across the first 4 rows of your cooler (as thats the angle the inlet pipe of your cooler aims the air) then hits the end tank and travels down to the out let of your cooler... it dosent HavE to pass over all the bars of the cooler at all!
in fact the best way to have the inlet and out lets positioned on ANY intercooler would be dead center of ALL the cooling bars correct???........................................
HANG ON!!!!!!
JUST LIKE MY £60 EBAY COOLER
Im not arguing with you Clarke. Your cooler is not like the massive cheap ebay coolers that people buy. It is fit for purpose, the discussion is about size not cost and quality. I see people turning up at my pals garage with coolers that cover the front of the car, just because its big doesn't make it efficient. If you look at some of the coolers out there they are end fed and they are not effecient as they will not fill or feed the cooling fins. Yours is small compact and the end cans are feeding all the fins, hence great performance due to its efficiency.
Jareds cooler is small but it fills and clearly performs.
So back to the start of this debate, bigger doesn't mean best! A correctly fed smaller capacity cooler may and probably will out perform a much larger less efficient one.
Spec r's coolers have been tested and look at how the air is fed in and the shape of the end tanks, thats why they work so well
