Which is better?
 
I have a P600B procharger with a 3 core intercooler supplied with this kit. I was just wondering If this intercooler in better than ATI's twin high flow intercoolers...

Thanks for looking.

The bigger the intercooler, usually the cooler the IAT's. I am not familiar with the 3 core intercooler that comes with the P600B, but I do know that the twin high flows from ATI will support boost levels safely up to about 8 or 9 pounds of boost.

If you are worried that you might be coming close to detonation, you could always step up to a bigger intercooler like an FMIC. Most likely your P600B is not making that kind of boost though and you'll be fine with what you have, or the twins. Methanol injection is something else that is pretty inexpensive, and can keep your IAT's nice and cool.

i agree, id do the meth injection before shelling out a lot of cash on a FMIC, and most guys have cut to up the front end with a FMIC (if you want the FMIC to be most effective, which is why you would do a FMIC).

Look at it this way, you can spend $65 to fill you tank with race gas every time you need fuel, or you can spend $300-$400 on a methanol injection kit, and spend $3.00 a gallon of methanol that will last you 4 weeks of thrashing at a time.

The cheeper of the two (and much more convinient IMO) is the methanol injection.
