I would like to know this also. I am liking the Silvia core. I think the GTR core would be a bit too much for what I have.
I dont really care about how hard the install is........
Just best price

Umm, I know where to go to find info on it. Actually I dont even like the info they have---if you look under prices, it shows that they have like 6 different end tank part numbers, which is which.

Anyways. I want to see who has the best prices on them. Theres no way Im paying retail directly from them---they can be found cheaper I would think. Or am I wrong?

Anyone have an XS catalog they could scan some pics of the endtanks?

i was actually looking for retailers that might have them for cheaper.

anyways i was looking around rre's site and came across this which looks almost identical to the xs i/c. the only difference is that this core is 20x10x2.75 vs. 20x10.95x3. which means that it'll be more install friendly for my car. BTW this is a griffin core. does anyone know how these perform?

I saw that too. Right now high boost isnt any time soon for my car (stock bottom end). So with the low boost I will be running, that IC wont help me at all. Trust me if I had a built block, I would be all over that ****.
I like the Silvia sized IC.

The griffins are only $300 for the core at rre. Looks like a pretty good deal to me.

Call up XS and ask for Mark and tell them Nathan with the WRX sent you. You may get a good break.
