Not this again. Way too many variables to make a blanket statement like that.

If both types are sized appropriately for a specific use, it takes longer for bar & plate to heat up and cool down than tube & fin. That’s good for highway passes and drag racing, not constant circuit racing.

That said, Evo2 needs to be bigger if you’re running a Stg 2 tuned car hard on track in the middle of summer, and is why some of the larger and heavier bar & plates can perform a little better.

But in general tube & fin is lighter and cools off quicker than bar & plate between corners. So, if the Evo3 is large enough, it’ll perform better than bar & plate on a circuit track.
