OK turbo guys, looking for some opinions here. I'm looking at a Delta Fin intercooler, as I can get it pretty damn cheap. Is it worth spending more and going with a bar and plate intercooler? My understanding is bar and plate is more durable and heavier, delta fin/tube and fin has better flow but maybe a little less cooling.

Probly will never touch the drag strip, so I'll keep that in mind. Autocross only.
