Heat Exchanger????
Heat Exchanger????
Anyone Have The Link To The Cx Racing H.e The Smaller One I Cant Seem To Find It
IS THIS THE ONE?

OTTP stopped using the CXR HEs and went with a different unit which is much larger than the CXR one
yea i hear you i read somewhere with the bigger one running just one would be better, but with the small one i figure it would be best to run both inline since the small one doesnt hold as much coolant, i dunno though
If you want, you can make a new one just like OTTP did and have it be even bigger (somehow)
If youre comparing yours to the CXR ones, the small CXR is 20inł smaller, and the large CXR is 50inł larger
i know you're trying to be "pro ZZP" and all, but dude...simple math. 430inł vs 580inł. OTTP clearly wins this battle.

it stops showing gains when the HE has dissipated ALL heat that the laminova cores have added. As you get closer to that number though, it will become exponentially harder to remove more heat, and at some point in continuing this process, yes you will hit a point where the extra cooling does not justify the weight gain.. I dont believe any of the HEs that are run on cobalts by us are at this pooint yet, and neither does GM, considering the time attack cobalts run a ginormous griffin one.
Truth of the matter is the OTTP h/e is bigger.
The ZZP one is nice to, and cheaper. But the overall cooling is going to be better with the OTTP
ZZP is a little too big. I've got the Small CX Racing Heat Exchanger and I love the way it looks. One sec, I'll get some pics up of it. Install was fairly easy too, just sucked I was by myself. 




I ran both, it doesn't hurt the performance of the vehicle and doesn't hurt my IAT2's. Where you run into the problem is when you run a bigger heat exchanger, like the ZZP or the Big CX Racing. The stock heat exchanger takes up too much room and you will have to cut part of your bumper to get it to fit.
But if you're going by drop in * for your IAT2's, I wouldn't be able to tell you which one is the best. I can only tell you that OTTPerformance told me that they did extensive testing on the large core and small core CX Racing Heat Exchanger and found that the small core did better for cooling.

p.s. i am the actual hands on person at zzp who builds all of our heat exchangers at zzp if anyone has any questions please feel free to direct them to me!
thanks!
In no such way will you have to remove any part of your bumper to fit the zzp heat exchanger along with the factory one still on the car. The heat exchanger that you see on the blue ss was installed with the bumper cover still on. Our heat exchangers are larger and utilize the whole open area of the bumper for cooling, Also our exchangers are a dual pass core which seperates the coolant more and exposes it more to the ambiant airflow. Now don't get me wrong i am not slamming any other companies products, but we also have done testing and went through a long process of design to get it right.
