Heeeeeellllllllllll no!

Pace use a three row core with 1/2" wide tubes side by side, giving a cross sectional Flow area of 38.1 mm.
Our cores have two rows of 22mm tubes side by side giving a cross sectional flow area of 44mm... this might not sound like much but when you consider that there are 30 rows in height the total cross sectional flow area is 177mm more with this design.
our cores are also made from a magnesium alloy..This actually makes the fins far stronger and makes the construction generally stronger- ideal for motorsport or track days where there are higher demands on both cooling and structural integrity.
