We already have the Triple HX kit for both cars since they're identical and recovery time was reduced by 400%! But that's also because we have 154% more fluid in ours

Individual cooler numbers:
Side Cooler Stock: 15oz (444ml)
Side Cooler WXM: 27.5oz (813ml)
Volume Increase: 12.5oz (369ml)
=83% Increase in cooler volume

Center Cooler Stock: 19.5oz (577ml)
Center Cooler WXM: 60oz (1,774ml)
Volume Increase: 40.5oz (1,197ml)
=207% Increase in cooler volume

Total intercooler system numbers (One side cooler plus one center cooler):
HX System Stock: 34.5oz (1,020ml)
HX System WXM: 87.5oz (2,588ml)
Volume Increase: 53oz (1,567ml)
=154% Increase in cooler volume
What is the weight difference with the larger HX and more fluid? Would be interesting to see if the weight distribution at the front changes as well.

More math than I have time to do at the moment, but it'd definitely be heavier in the front with all that extra fluid. Don't think I'd want to add the larger heat exchangers unless they were absolutely needed.
