Default Are XS engeeneering turbo chargers and intercoolers any good?

I was wondering if Xs engeering turbochargers and intercoolers any good? IF so what size turbo and intercooler should I get. I was thinking of getting the T04E or a Hybrid T3/T04E turbo and the GT-R core (24.00" x 11.00" x 3.00") or would that be to big. And does any one know were i can get xs engenerring products for a better price than on ther website or any were else I could get them
I have a 95 gsr wanting to make 300-350 whp daily driver. Will be using Stage 3 hodata Je 9.0-1 pistons and crower rods.

I just recently got rid of my RevHard I/C and bought the XS Engineering GTR core w/ endtanks! It looks like a very good intercooler, but it is very big! I am not too sure how I am going to fit it under my front bumper! The RevHard core was 20x7.8x3.5 whereas the new core , like you said is 24x10.94x3. I guess I will compare the I/C once I get the car up and running again in a few weeks and put it on the dyno! I am hoping to push 450-500 whp ; I hope the XS core can support it!

On the intercooler, can XS weld the end tanks on before they ship them?

yes..i believe so. Or you can buy the intercooler through a place like JG Engine Dynamics..and they can do the work.

I believe they can, or you can have any welding shop do teh welding for you! Another advantage of not haveing them welded onto the IC before they ship it is, you can get the endtanks polished!
