Is a Aftermarket Heat exchanger needed??

[03Bite]

I have an 08 shelbygt500 and I am about to put a VMP 2.65" pulley and JLT cold air intake on it along with custom tuning. I live in Lower Wisconsin so the air temps range in that 70-85's in the summer. Is it a must that I switch to an aftermarket heat exchanger? If there are guys running this same combo let me know what you think.

if you are you going to do repeated roll races, daily drive or track your car then yes

 

[GOTSVT?]

Yes.

A good aftermarket heat exchanger will help even a stock GT500.
Put it on your list.

all right then. Which one are most people using? The Afco or the shelby one or????

The Shelby Revan/C&R Heat Exchanger with dual fans was out a year before AFCO introduced their dual fan heat exchanger.

Afco had a larger non-fan heat exchanger on the market in early 07 for the GT500's.

Shoot me a PM or an email or give mea call if you are interested in a heat exchanger for your car.

The Afco and Van's unit are both nice pieces. You can't go wrong with either one. I will say that at least Van's unit has test data to back it up. Still waiting for that H/E showdown.

I use Vans myself(shelby)
Great fitment, and great product support at your disposal.

The C&R radiator and heat exchanger made a big difference for my daily driver 09 GT500. I vote yes.

I have a Revan on the way and will follow it with a VMP 2.65" pulley. I would not add the pulley without it. I live about 25 miles south of the WI border.
