Give me numbers.

Sorry, I don't believe in butt dynos...
I can make your car "more responsive" just by changing the pressure in your tires.
Get the dyno numbers and we'll see how much of an advantage it is.
Right now, you're just telling us it-just-feels-better?
I'm just telling you to prove it.
Call me hater or whatever, but I wanna see numbers.
Sorry, I'm not into believing every Tom, Dick, and Harry's claims on the InTerNeTz...

I couldn't agree with this statement more. I especially hate when people say, I added a Jacob/MSD/Crane CDI box and it's so much more responsive, starts and idles smoother, pulls harder through-out the rpm range blah blah blah blah..... generally what's failed to be mentioned is at the same time the CDI box went on, so did new plugs and wires  Yet all the credit is given to the CDI box..... I fricken hate that garbage. Show me a back to back dyno run on the same day, with the same map, and the same ambient temps then we'll talk. I say the same holds true for your 4 iterations of intercoolers. Yeah it's nice to be able to say, check it out, look what I did, it's so much more responsive. However, I want to see a back to back to back test of the stock TMIC, a FMIC with a REAL core, and this one. Then we'll actually know for sure.
As for the, cold to the touch after an auto-x run....... show me some datalog's please. I can show mine and I'll tell you exactely what my AIT's were throughout the entire run as well
Data= everything. I'll take one dyno run over a thousand ass dyno's anyday, the same goes for one test result vs a thousand expert opinions.
