The pic below shows a load of Spearco intercoolers one of which is a top down desighn. (on the left and three down)

Some one on the US list is saying these are more effective because the air loses less pressure yet still gets cooled effectively. There has been no proof of these claims but I thought you guy's could clear this one up a bit faster.

 

So does running the air in from the top and coming out through the bottom using a intercooler the same dimensions as say a Type R but with vertical core instead of a horizontal one make a difference? Do you get less pressure loss and therefore less lag?

 

I'm sure this won't make a huge difference but it attracted my attention and now I want to know more.....
