Too many
That's a pretty cool design, and a nice way to spoof the rules to get around the OEM IM/IC issues with the precooler in the charge pipe. Them putting the oil cooler in the back like that seems telling about either the room up front, or that the front cooling stack was already somewhat borderline. Granted, it could also have been done for weight, but I'd wager the other two first given the complexity of rear mount coolers.

That would lend credence to the thought that a larger HX for the IC would still get overwhelmed, or at least the stock IC needed more help than a passive cooler would do. I'd still be curious what the inlet/outlet temps are for those given it's a capacitance setup. I agree a larger IM/IC combo is the way to go for most though.

I just got my 2026 about 3 weeks ago, so I haven't taken anything off in the front to look at, but given Subaru was so bad at front cooling stack anyway I imagine the Supra will look fine lol.

Mine is the etched silver top as well. It's a great manifold. At least we can all agree on that

Nice, it works great!

I wonder why they changed the graphic. Kinda glad I got one before they changed it. Looks more stealthy IMHO:

Mark, I consider you Gandalf the white
Guess you’ve seen my hair color. But thx hombré. I ask the dumb questions many are thinking and Bryan answers the tuff ones that matter. Sometimes there are a few softballs I know :bonk:

Wonder why the welding stands out so much more on yours? Guess that’s why some peeps cover theirs or put a plate over it ?‍♂

I think the fact that it's dirty exacerbates it a bit

I’d take it in a heartbeat. Can’t wait for you to try her with all your new kibbles and bits. Gonna be Dyno ? might ?

Regardless, someday I get one…. I need a few good winter runs w/out breaking schtuff. None heat related ofc, or I’d go get one now. I’ll bite that bullet soon enuf. There’s no doubt it helps. Seen guys down here with them. They can actually drive during our summers ?. Makes a huge difference in their IATs, as you already know.

Thanks bud. I'm off to the track this coming weekend to do a fair bit of testing, but i'm not going to set any blistering laps unfortunately. The temps have started going up here. Close to 110 at this point

the older ones have milled recesses for the logo, the newer ones dont - it's just screened on. machine time expensive. probably a cost cutting measure
