The zorst sounds more raspy and slighty baffled. :driver:
Have you guys ever been swimming and left some water in your ears, until your ears dry off properly, all sounds are kind of baffled. :laugh:

No-one else farts in the bath either, TC. :evilgrin:

No it is a 0.7 PSI pressure drop full stop. I believe the stock intercooler has about a 1 PSI pressure drop so it suffers less pressure drop than the stock intercooler.

so adding extra piping and extra IC lowers the pressuredrop????? :confused: :confused:
KRL:
The way I see it is that the extra piping is minimal - there is barely a foot of it. Add to that the efficiency of the Forge core and that is probably what gives you less pressure drop.
Remember that the Forge core works in parallel with the OEM intercooler hence why there will be less pressure drop than with just the OEM intercooler. If the intercoolers were to be put in a series configuration then of course there would be more pressure drop.
The more I think about it the more of a clever design the Forge Twintercooler is. Or maybe I'm just talking myself into spending more money :signLOL:

you will certainly benefit from this even with the s3 cooler, extra cooling and more efficient recovery means a bit more power and for longer :happy2:
