They're more efficient. Darkside Developments sells an improved S3 IC. Other options are from THS and Peron. :smiley:

Cheers, my only issue is cost. I have been offered an s3 cooler for very little money, it has plastic ends on it though, so wasn't sure if they all flow and cool better

Whole point is metal ends which better for heat dissapation I believe but mainly because they can take higher boost pressures before blowing.

Darkside's Uprated S3 intercooler is just a THS intercooler for about 2/3 the price.

I'm waiting for mine to arrive based on your feedback! I'm glad you got one and had such good results. :drinking:

Haha if it's no good I'll be in trouble then!!

Replace your AC condensor as well with a new one -  helps air flow so much.
