It looks very much like my intercooler. I think that it's even the exact same size.

would a 30x5x2 cause much lag?
or is a 30x7x3 a better idea?

I would think that it is too small, but I am not too sure.

I would never get a intercooler that is thinner than 3". Are you talking about 30" from tip to tip or just a core? you don't need a core that is 30" wide. I would get something between 20-24" wide(core), at least 6" tall and at least 3" thick.

why 3" thick?

the thicker it is... the harder it is for air to flow through it...

unless u know something i dont..

but in the same respect it makes for more surface area to cool more air. Both have vaild arguements.

thats why i prefer a taller intercooler with alot of rows... but only 2.25-2.5" thick or so.

lots of surface area + good flow
