after intercooler`14.86@94.3 60' 2.3 81deg ambient and humidity was super high it felt like it was 100 out.
before 15.3@92 60' 2.04 ran in this configuration over 100 passes didnt matter if it was 60deg outside it still ran 15.3

this is my data at the drag strip. I was very happy with the gains although i couldnt get a good launch. I will be returning to the strip soon to try and run a better 60' with the intercooler on the car.

i think helix has made the best intercooler for the space provided. there is no other intercooler on the market for the r56 that is nearly as good. I have had the m7 intercooler the alta intercooler and now the helix and the helix is what i was looking for. no trimming the bumper to get it to fit and no struggling with boost tubes to make it fit right. no need for temperature sensor relocation like the other intercoolers either. i look back and ask myself...why did i struggle with other companies intercoolers in the first place.
