Japspeed Intercooler kit (insanely cheap!)

Hi,

So I just got me an intercooler kit for £150! It is originally for the Evo X but I am pretty sure it will fit on my Ralliart. I made an unboxing video here:
Do check it out!

I will mount it in the coming days and post updates throughout the process! This kit could be an extreme value for money if it fits properly, no high hopes though considering it's eBay stuff from China. Although from what I have read, the brand itself seems to have an ok reputation. Their kits for Subaru's and Evo 8/9's seem to fit ok and deliver decent performance!

If it (truly) fits EVO X - it will fit us too!

Well, I assumed so but that was not the case. The crash beams seem to be different on EU models, there was very little room between the radiator and the crash beam. IC would barely fit, and none of the pipes would line up properly. Either because of it or that they were crap to begin with. Weird that a 3 inch thick IC was a snug fit. Also, the two screws on the bottom were too far apart. Surely the evo x must use the same mounting points at the bottom of the IC?

Anyway, I got pissed so now I'm trying to sell it...

Soo... I didn't sell it after all. Actually, it fits! I gave it another try and got it to fit. Video below
