They are impressive in size, but the core is very thin, plus they have plastic end tanks that will blow up under high boost. They are pretty over rated. If I were you, I'd try to get an Isuzu NPR intercooler as they are much better.

Powerstroke coolers are just really big.
The Evo 8 cooler seems to be pretty decent.

"but the core is very thin, plus they have plastic end tanks that will blow up under high boost."

Define high boost.
it must be more than 22PSI, I'll show you a guy in a '89 740 running with 22PSI stock intercooler, nothing has gone sour with it.

mine has held up just fine, if anything its Volvo's radiators that are shit.
