I think precision has their cores rated on their site, by CFM vs volume. HTH.

Well, it takes about 450 cfm @ 70 degs F to make three hundred HP. But the question then remains, what pressure are you planning to run , and what core will have the least pressure drop across it? I personally can't find and calculators but there is a graph in the intercooling ssection of "the bible".

Here you go...

I have the chart right here in the garrett/spearco documentation.
it's true that chinese knock offs don't flow as much as genuine spearcos so you have to pick a larger one to compensate.

let me know your Ic size, I'll tell you it's HP rating.
or
let me know your desired HP, I'll tell you the sizes that can do it.
