ebay intercoolers are great but that one is a rip off
you should not pay more than $150 for the ams knock off intercooler and the intercooler piping should not cost more than $100

For three months solid there were no 99 dollar ones available. Only 199 plus shipping.

I cant believe this thread....

You dont need to change out the intercooler until you makeing 400+whp....I just went 11.9 at almost 115 stock intercooler and all stock piping. Anyone that tells you that you need to change it is full of $#!T. save your $ or put it into something thats accually going to make power or put it towards another mod. I have no plans on changing mine for a while yet. Im probally someware in the neighborhood of 360whp. Mines going to have Nitrous (about a 60shot) and Alky injection first. Should make almost 450whp stock turbo, thats before the intercooler.
Bottom line is YOU DON"T NEED ONE.....and if you buy one for God's sake dont buy an egay intercooler, its a waste of $.

It bothers me so much to see people take a car, and it dosent matter what it is, and do absolutely pointless mods to it. There's ALOT I want to say right now but im going to bite my lip, just so it stays on topic. And so I dont get banned for saying something stupid in this thread.

Dude there's NOTHING great about an egay intercooler theres not even anything good about it. There all total rip offs, there all junk and there all so innoficent you might as well be running the stock one.
