SLIPPERY Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Great coolers manufactured here in Oz. Finished quality is great My choice of cooler on a previous car i had from reviews heard from other owners who bought one Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/138544-pwr-coolers/#findComment-2581225 Share on other sites More sharing options...
benm Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 I have a PWR intercooler on my GTR (was already on it when I bought it) and the temps were always nice and stable even in 35c heat. I deliver PWR radiators and oil coolers on a weekly basis to a radiator bloke in my area and the weld quality is great and they always look tops.

gun-r32 Posted December 17, 2006 Author Share Posted December 17, 2006 just thought id follow this thread up with some pics i took of the welds, core etc. on the PWR cooler before it was installed. Overall workmanship is very very good for the price. Also pretty much a drop in replacement, bar a little trimming here of the front bar. Cheers to the boys down Hyperdrive way for the install too Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/138544-pwr-coolers/#findComment-2755757 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLIPPERY Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 PWR claim that all their fabrication is done at their factory unless fabrication means fitting end tanks lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/138544-pwr-coolers/#findComment-2760363 Share on other sites More sharing options...
32R Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Thats what fabrication means to me Gunr32 have you got any pics after its been installed? Also what sort of improvements has it givin,lower temps?,increased flow? Any measured performance increase on the the dyno or track?

gun-r32 Posted December 19, 2006 Author Share Posted December 19, 2006 I haven’t actually seen it yet dude, it got installed while I was working away. I’ll be driving it as of Thursday though for a couple of weeks, so I’ll take some pics and give you the low down on performance.

stÖrmy Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 (edited) you guys are paying 1k for intercoolers? wtf?... i dunno how you can justify that lol, they have these tiny 399$ ones in supercheap, mines 2x bigger, its a china cooler and cost 130$, welds look better on it as well. you guys should already know theres no difference flow wise with intercooler weather they were made in china or made by a "well known" company. and no, they are not made in aus.

Butler Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 yeah mate china ones are fine if you are making stuff all power, but for people who want good quality, awesome welds and a product that is actually tested and developed then they buy a name brand one. Ones like pwr, plasmaman, hks, trust etc all have better core designs which flow better and keep intake temps lower. Plus if he decieds to smash a big single on their, he know that he will not lose power through dodgey design. but if you want to keep ur china go right ahead.
