Not something I could believe much in, if it were true you would never risk great deals on something of value.

The second I/C looks like the ones from the Drag turbo kits, while the first does look like the older model Greddy.

So.....you're telling me that a $200 intercooler is going to perform just as well as a $500 intercooler? Or that a "full race style" manifold off of Ebay for $150 is going to hold up just as the real full race manifold's do? Not saying that there are not good deals on stuff out there, just saying that you have to be cautious on what you buy and make sure that you are getting what you are expecting....
