i think its great that other options are out there... competition is a great thing for consumers and also for the scene as a whole
Used to have VRSF DPs Swapped them out for Akras last weekend

Competition is def good, it lights a fire under everyones ass & forces new innovations to keep companies in business. This in turn gives the consumers better products & can sometimes even lead to lower prices

Already a work in progress

The calculator will take into account pressure drop from air temperature reduction (Ideal Gas Law: PV=nRT). The delta will be air flow inefficiencies. The calculator will also measure average charge air to ambient delta T as well as inlet to outlet delta T. We welcome challengers. Below is a picture of the calculator. The data entered into the calculator is NOT our intercooler results. Stay tuned.
