Pace intercoolers are not much better than a stock IC mate, better off getting a nice Radtec, or GRS.

Dont twin pass IC's restrict flow more than a single pass?
Or is it to such a small degree that its irrelevant?

Theoretically yes, but they also get 2 goes at cooling the air which is INCREDIBLY effective. My new cooler is single pass (with a super-dooper fancy core) and until I have seen the results, I will be sceptical.
