what makes 1 intercooler better than the other? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I am going to be ordering an intercooler kit for my S14 SR swap and I was wondering what exactly makes 1 intercooler better than the other? For instance what makes a blitz kit better than a no name brand? Core thickness, fin design. I am just debating on which kit to buy and my biggest concern is to not have to cut the metal "crash bar" in order for it to fit. I have searched and found that the HKS Type S kit works since it is only 2.5" thick and I would only need to trim the bumper support.

Now what would make an HKS kit better than Blitz, Greddy, or vise versa?

Is the HKS Type S kit a quality piece or can I get better for less $.

Input is greatly appreciated as I will be placing an order by the end of the week.
