Thread: Banks With Super Scoop.. What do you think

How much cooler?

if you read on this site as well as others you will see guys are disappointed with aftermarket intercoolers because they dont help all that much. unless you are making huge power, and a lot of boost.

I don't have one but im sure nice cool outside air is good bump for banks super scoop....er
