4" thick intercooler

Would anyone know if this intercooler size would create to lag because of the thickness??? 4.5 x 21 x 10

I would be using the AF61 Turbo and 3" pipes in/out. Feedback please

Thanks

you shouldnt have to worry about it. I would be more concerned with whether that intercooler is going to remove enough heat from your intake charge. Im assuming its an ebay special?

Thickness wont have a effect on lag as much as length or end tank design will. Your bigger issue will be getting enough air through it to the rad. if it is a FMIC.
