treadstone is the best bang for the buck. garret or bell might be slightly better but way more expensive. i have a custom made intercooler with a bell core and if i had to do it again id go with treadstone

I got to thinking about my intercooler (20x12x3 core china racing), and did some homework.
At the track recently, 95F ambient, 122F staging lane, 168F end of burnout, 225F end of track.
Problem for me is complete lack of space up front for an IC, so I'm stuck mounting down between the frame rails. Thoughts?

We offer a 12x23x3 = 69" of flow area
Fits with none to minimal modding.
That's almost twice the area of standard cores in these trucks.

"Here is a pic of a Bell core vs a Garrett core. The Bell core cant even keep up with a Garrett of equal size. IMO nothing compares to a Garrett core."
I like your product from a bolt in perspective, but I would have preferred disclosure of who makes your core if I'm to be spending 1k. I haven't seen anyone else recommending vertical cores either, unless space limitations dictated so.
