ADD Intercooler and Relo Kit Compared to Whipple Intercooler

[Raptizzle]

Can we please call it a Full Race intercooler?

I'm sure for Baja and fast work the heat is fine. My concern would be that slow tow up a hill with a lot of weight. Those turbos are also water cooled.

Full scale wind tunnels are few and far between and very expensive to rent.

anything bigger than the OEM cooler will help tremendously... it's all about surface area to volume and of course airflow

Great post! I have been wondering the same thing. I was under the impression ADD and full race were pretty much the same intercooler. Is this true. I have been seeing more and more intercoolers on the market.

I spoke to MPT and they had high regards for the Wagner intercooler but didn't say what the best intercooler was. There are too many variables. They sell several of the listed intercoolers and are probably hesitant to say.

I believe I saw a Mishimoto intercooler some where that looked similar to the whipple.
Hope to hear from some one that has actual experience with these.

Dont understand why some of these companies wont schedule some wind tunnel time and do some temp compares.

Cost and...why bother when there's a ready supply of guinea pigs lining up to be their beta testers.

So the full race intercooler is the same one offered in the ADD relocation kit. Good to have that verified.

Seeing as I currently am leaning toward the ADD pro bumper - which requires a relocated intercooler - it's good to know that their option is also a serious performance upgrade as well as making it possible to run the sleekest bumpers on the market.

Why is there a price difference? Full Race with Black Friday discount is $1259 and ADD is $1659.

Have you seen the OG frame cut bumper by @svc?

I have and I loved the SVC bumpers I had on my gen1. I’d also like to keep a light bar there as well like my gen1 had w/ the SVC Baja bumper on the front. It looks like the only way to get that clean design w/ a light bar on a gen2 is to go ADD.
