The eurocharged and LET ones are the same thing. Eurocharged is doing hardware for LET.

The code3 unit and the LET unit are the same size. Thats about all I know...sorry.

C3P units allegedly use Spearco cores, which allegedly are among the highest quality cores available. I don't know the brand of cores any others use, or if there even is one (i.e. just "generic" cores). That said, they cost a bit more I believe... and on occasion C3P is known to disappoint customers with lengthy payment-to-shipping turnaround.

I have an LET/EC HE (that's a mouthful) and it's performed as advertised for ~ 1 year, and at a reasonable price point.

Needswings *might* also have a HE option that fits the C32 - not 100% certain of that, however. Also, there's an online place called Frozen Boost (I think) that sells really inexpensive air-to-water heat exchangers - but you might have some fitment and/or minor fabrication issues (inlets/outlets, brackets, etc) to deal with.

Who is LFP?

I'm pretty sure the NeedsWings Super Cooler will not fit on the C32 as we don't have as much space up front as the SRT-6's or SLK32's.

On their Website they also only list it for the SRT-6:

They were for a while at least. I have a C3P HE and asked Jerry what he had at the time since I was stuck waiting for the C3P to come in and he was selling C3P HE's direct from them. The C3P HE does have the Spearco cores.

Slightly off topic, but how is everyone checking their coolant temps? I thought I remembered reading somewhere you could check the digital temp somehow on the climate control display?? What range should our temps be with upgraded pump and bigger HE?

i remember the difference between the code3 and the old LET exchangers were the code3 was slightly larger and you had to drill a hole to attached to the support beam on the LET. The code3 had the 4 holes there it bolted directly under the 4 bolts on the support beam.

The new C3P are indeed a little bit bigger as it barely fits with the stock bumper let alone an aftermarket one like mine, both are great though...

Frozen Boost

This does seem to be the cheapest prices around. Lots of sizes to choose from as well. Seems they would custom make one as well. Compared to what others are charging, it still may be a bargain. These look like mustang prices.
