Split Performance Intercooler - Anyone Else?

[5teve]

Hi Guys

Just looking at my options for aftermarket Performance intercoolers and was wondering, after my current 3.5 year experience with the Allard intercooler splitting along the seams (repaired and split again within 6 months) with only a standard turbo running 19psi boost.. who else has had an intercooler split?

As we have family coming over shortly, I have the opportunity to maybe squeeze one in their suitcase (carefully packed of course!). I have been looking at paddocks (serck) as they are down the road from the family. It looks fairly identical to the Allard, which makes me more concerned about the longivety and the chance of it splitting.. anyone else been using a serck based unit over the years?

I know ASE and Alisport have been recommended and noticed that IRB have a unit made by PWR now (Aussie company maybe? or at least have Aussie presence) but just looking at my options..

I have never split one on a Land Rover my TD5 has an Allisport and regularly runs 25 PSI without issue.
I have seen them on split on trucks

I have an Alive tuning ( Gary Wood ) Chiptech intercooler, it appeared too be quite robust and it has cast side tanks. It has not be in my Puma very long, however it works well in the heat. Made in Austria I believe.

PWR is located halfway between Brisbane and the Gold Coast, do a lot of custom design and manufacture. from what I have seen they do good work, have just looked at their web site and they list LR products too. very good reputation

Have a look at Air to Water Intercooler (http://www.frozenboost.com). They also do a full range of air to air, and fittings and accessories.
