All Intercoolers are not made equal, most full height Intercoolers use a 40mm core for their cooling but the NEW GEN 2 Pro 400 uses a very efficient Dense Fin Bar and Plate Type 50mm Core, so it's 25% larger than any other full sized cooler on the market.
The design team were asked to produce a cooler that would allow the X-47R and the new X-57R turbos to work to well over 400 bhp. The only way to run that sort of power from an intercooler is to increase the size of the core. The GEN 1 Pro 400 unit already ran a full height core so the only way to go was to run a thicker core. Therefore, out goes the industry standard 40mm and in comes the next generation 50mm core that is 25% larger, increasing cooling performance massively.
Together with this, the cooler is positioned on the car at a slight angle meaning the top is slightly further forward than the bottom, much like on WRC cars. This has the effect of catching more air than a conventional cooler as the majority of the air over the front of the car would be flowing up towards the bonnet and over the car.
The next design feature was the entry angles of the end tanks, we've purposely angled these upwards, forcing the air from the lower portions up to the top of the cooler, again, improving the intercooler efficiency.
