HTT Intercooler???

My Banks intercooler got a little scratched up in my wreck, I'm going to replace it BUT NOT W/ANOTHER BANKS! (whoops, sorry for the venting). Anyway, is the HTT Intercooler a good one, I really want a big nasty silver one this time, what about BD or Spearco? What are your opinions?

All 3 are good, I would see which of the three you could get the best deal on and go with it.

I have a HTT in my 05, and it's a very nice piece. It is quiet a bit larger and better built then the cool twist in my 02.

Agree with above... all three are good. Spearco is way to much a pain to install... eliminate that one right away. BD and HTT... flip a coin. No one has done head to head testing of the various perameters that matter to really see differences.

I have the HTT and can tell you it is 75lbs of big bright aluminum!! By virtue of flow I have measured from one side to the other with my twins, I had less than 1psi loss at 60psi of boost. (really not a measureable difference) I can tell you just by touch there is a tremendous cooling difference too. I could not touch the inlet side without getting burned (after some high speed TNT flogging) but the outlet side was very cool, close to ambient. That is the best testing I've seen anyone do.
Honestly, I could buy the BD and have as much confidence in it too... when I bought the HTT, it was new on the market and just a lot less $$$.

Also both are easy drop in fits with only very minor mods... (grind down bumper bolts sticking out too far)
