Bar-and-plate core, rounded cast end-tanks, developed in CSF's wind tunnel and 3D-scanned for fit. CSF measures intake temps about 38°F (21°C) lower than stock after three consecutive pulls. Fully reversible to OEM.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFinishes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe spec these with a \u003cstrong\u003eThermal Heat Dispersion coating by default\u003c\/strong\u003e — an emissivity coating that helps the core radiate heat away, which is exactly what you want on a cooler.
