I heard they don't flow much CFM (?) could be wrong though.

found it , 351 cfm

"the powerstroke InterCooler according to Turboford.org stats are
351cfm, 289 inlet temp, 92 outlet temp
pressure drop .02
heat rejected is 73305 btu/hr
calculated heat exchange area is 3278 square inches.

my first post here in a long time. i just love SyTy's :p but i don't have one :(

but i do have this cooler going on my truck, see sig, and some pics/info here http://www.s10forum.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=20841

i saw this cooler on the GN forum and thought it should work for me.

351cfm ? lol, just look at where that info came from, a ford board = nuff said. ok, maybe not. i have seen vortech heads be made to flow 250cfm through 1 intake valve that is 1.94". so how is a cooler with 3" pipes only going to be 100cfm more than just 1 valve ? i would say this cooler will flow around 1000cfm. you want evidence ? GN's running 11's with this cooler.

i was going to front mount mine as in the pic seen in this thread. but i desided it would be much more professional to mount it IN the core support.
i had ac, but never used it. so i removed that for the extra room/cleanlyness, and i put the cooler where the ac condencer used to be, it fits pretty nice.

later, jes
 

just a 6

Here are some different number:

340 CFM
0.07 psi pressure drop
290 degrees in, 111 degrees out
core 19.5 wide x 14.5 tall x 2 thick
2.75' in/out
heat exchange area 2018 inches square

And more here

I think they used 340-350cfm flow when they tested the IC, not that it's the maximum flow. The PowerStroke diesel is a < 7 liter engine and pushing 18-20psi of boost stock, with the Diablo chip they run up to 30psi boost with no IC problem. They do trash turbo's with that much boost, used to work at a Ford dealership so i know.

i think the key spec is the psi pressure drop #. .07 is nothing, so 350cfm isn't bad for that #. if what i read is right, you will lose about 1psi for every 90deg bend in the system.

what i'm trying to say is, this is a pretty dam good cooler, then the price, welllllll need i say more.
