My date code on my 360 is 2007 and contains the Zephyr Chipset. Which intercooler do I need? There are several and I just want to make sure that I order the one that will fit my power supply.
"All drives should be updated to Lite Touch + (LT+) firmware if playing on XBOX live. Samsung drives and pre-78/79 Hitachi drives do not utilize AP 2.5. All other drives are considered to be detectable by Microsoft (YMMV). Make sure all rips are ABGX verified, contain SSv2, and patched AP2.5 (where needed). XGD3 must currently be burned on new drive with PC Burner Max firmware for 100% rip. All modded consoles can be potentially unsafe for use on XBOX live."

Intercoolers have been known to cause scorch marks and even occasionally catch on fire due to design flaws. Try googling for some pictures of melted/burned consoles. There are some really interesting looking ones out there.

I've been using the Intercooler EX on both of my consoles (Halo 3/MW2) for years with no problems. The Intercooler pictured in the link is the very first model that came out with the plastic power connector, the EX has been upgraded with a metal one. The only problem I have with the Intercooler is the noise, it gets pretty loud and I find myself having to turn up the volume.
I did 12v mod on my jtag and sealed around duct work and heatsinks so air would pass completely through heat sinks instead of more of the back half of them. And on fsd it shows it running around 25-30 degrees cooler than before, don't cost anything to do this except soldering skills, and works way better than intercooler.
