i have had two ebay intercoolers, one was crap and the welds were junk (28x6x3 dont remember the company), but the one that i got from CX MotorSports (29x9x3) was a nice piece with quality welds and a much better design. $130 shipped.

 

theres nothing wrong with them, all the people who say other wise just regret spending top dollar on thier name brand one.. are are pissed off.

if there is something worng with a simple intercooler then i want to see a link.... hmm no link, sorry.

Here you go, I didn't want to search for this link but luckily it only took me a few seconds:

Read that article, then check out the difference in core designs. I've owned both expensive and cheap intercoolers, and I can tell you for a fact that the core on the cheaper one was way less efficient.

dont speak. if youre in the same situation as allricedout, mow a few more lawns and deliver a few more newspapers so that you can at least get the obx or the cx one that guy is talking about.
no one regrets spending top dollar on anything. all ive seen are threads saying i wish i wouldve listened and gone with the better part cuz now my motor is busted. i never see any one with a full-race manifold saying "damnit! i knew i shouldve gone with ssac"

if you dont see a difference, then why are you asking for opinions? so others can explain to you the difference. if you look at an obx ramhorn and a full-race manifold, im sure that you probably wouldnt see a difference either. thats why people are asking questions to those that can see the difference..

 

okay im done.
