Would that have helped OG Shark at COTA, no idea. I think it's too situational dependent to say which IC style is better. Depending on ambient temps and driving style, one will outperform the other at different times. Plus, when you're max'ing them out on track, they're both going to get very toasty.

I can say it is pretty amazing to see how quickly the Wagner Evo 2 Comp sheds heat after WOT pulls vs the Dinan bar/plate IC that I had previously.
Yeah I'm not sure how much either style would have made a difference at that point on the track. I have a feeling that either would have a pretty tough time keeping up when pushing a bit in those temps and humidity. Not sure how much IAT drop to expect & how quickly but I was seeing a consistent 30 degree fluctuation each lap of 130 to 160.
