Eurocharged or C3P Heat exchanger?

I'm wanting to get a new Heat exchanger, As soon as I want something I want it ASAP. Being that the C32 H/E fits my car like its was always meant to be there I will stick with the aftermarket 32 H/E.

My question is who's H/E is better EC or C3P? Also Who can get it to me the fastest?

EC H/E is $350 C3P is $450 am I gaining anything by spending $100 more?

I got some loot to burn so if any of sponsors got one and can get it to me kinda fast im in.

Reason for the rush is: Hot AZ weather is right around the corner It will be damn near impossible to set the C55 1/4 record when 100+ degrees rolls in.

What is the difference between the Code3 heat exchanger and the LET one? Why the 100 dollar difference? How much better is the Code3 one?

I got mine from there. Got it fast (2-3 days) and it was cheap.

If speedy delivery is key, I would say go with LET/Eurocharged...assuming they have them in stock of course. C3P is not known for having great customer service or speedy delivery of parts paid for.
The C3P uses Spearco cores and that is most likely why the added $100. It may be slightly larger as well.
Hooley, stack 2 stock HE's.

If you source an aftermarket HE, you won't (likely) be stacking them. They are specifically engineered to take up almost every spare bit of space in the front airdam. Consequently, you'd simply replace the OEM version with the larger aftermarket version. You might be able to stack two OEMs though, since they're smaller, which is what SilverBulletAMG originally mentioned.

Good luck - you probably will have your hands full keeping that beast appropriately cool this summer; maybe talk to DynoComp about a water/meth injection kit? Some of the SRT6 guys are running them now.

My stock one is sitting in a box looking for a home. I was considering picking up another OEM off someone and checking to see if stacking them was really an option. I think it could work with some tweaking and would cool better than anything in the aftermarket right now. Rough figures looks like the CM30 pump could more than handle it as well. If all else fails, there's the 90.

I am pretty sure the C3P is the largest single HE we can currently get and that one leaves a fair amount of space under the bumper since it uses the stock mounting location up top. A lot of air runs under there = wasted cooling. Option 1 - make an air dam for it or Option 2 - see about fitting two stockers in there. If you weren't in a hurry I would say you should definitely look into it.

Go with Jake/Eurocharged all the way.

He is an active member here. He will take your calls. He will take care of you. Respect doesn't happen overnight.

Unfortunately, I cannot say the same thing about C3P.
