Did you measure the core only of the supercooler, or with its obviously larger endcaps? I used the formula L x W x H = Volume, core only, no endcaps.
My LET H/E measurements were from finned core to finned core = 333 ci.(exact dimensions on pg 2 or 3 of my personal thread).
My supercooler measurements were 16 x 20.75 x 1. I originally used 1.75 as the width until i read the tube are stated to be only 1". The difference in the .75 difference is 581 ci vs. 332 ci! This doesnt take into account the fact that from the supercooler pic it looks like the top and bottom have some material that isnt actually core but is probably used for measuring, meaning its even a bit smaller...
Then theres the question of effeciency. Do more smaller rows or less larger rows cool better? Does the power of the pump and speed of the fluid come into play to answer that? I dunno my head is starting to hurt...lol.
Im not trying to get too technical, im just trying to figure out the best way to really tell what the difference is.
