they're a great buy. my buddy has one and the core does look just like my GReddy 24row fmic. he had his piping made for it and it's a great intercooler. like redfdforme said, you can pay for a name or an intercooler. nobody will know who made it and they probobly wont care..

Yeah, looks like a greddy core but the endtanks have the ends much higher, maybe that will clear my air duct with that IC..

I just installed their larger one. The 24x12x3 and its quite nice. Looks good, works really well, or at leats feels like it. I have to hook up my sensors and my laptop up to see what the numbers are compared to the stock. But overall, I think its very nice.

Get a pic of the internal fin design.

Some of them are cheap because of the easier to make internal fin design.

I have the same IC. Works GREAT. Even at full boost from a 60-1 I never get more than a few degrees above ambient.

That seems to be the only thing I hear from people who insist on the big JDM names. All I know are the actual results Im seeing on my car.



If you feel that way then you can go ahead and spend a lot more money. Ill save mine and use it on other things

That's ok no one if forcing you to.



Do you realize this is NOT rx7club.com. If you have nothing productive to say don't say it.

Hmmm...I didn't know "XS Engineering" was considered JDM.

I didn't know "Garrett" was considered JDM.

I didn't know "Spearco" was considered JDM.

Yeah, I tend to have a higher level of what I consider minimum quality.

To me, wasting money on an inferior product is exactly that - a waste of money.

I tend to save enough money to buy the products I believe are worth my money rather than get cheap.
