Is a Cobra front mount intercooler radiator better then ZZP

Post by PervertedHamster »

I am an autobody tech, and was able to get a slightly twisted 2004 Ford Mustang Cobra front mount intercooler radiator. I currently have a ZZP SSIC system. My question is, do you think I should swap the ZZP intercooler radiator with the Cobra intercooler radiator? Just wondering if the Cobras may be more efficient?

Just curious, how do you have your radiator mounted?

Sorry, can't help you with your question though....

well, I removed the AC condensor, and put it in its place. Of course, I have no AC now, but i don't mind so much.

Agreed, more surface area will disapate more heat, so go by that.

Because the amount of water each one flows doesn't mean anything.

I thought it was an a/a IC thats why its so large and front mount. Even if he goes with a larger a/w he isnt changing the pump, so he wont see much difference in flow.
