some kind of miss leading information there, standard gtr intercoolers are tube and fin,
Bar and plate cool better that is true however they suffer from larger pressure drops, tube and fin suffer from less pressure drop but cool a little less effeciently. if you have the room and the dollars fit a big tube and fin core, these days everyone seems to go bar and plate, doesnt necessarily mean they are better. Do a google on them and there is a mountain of information.
