I may have to agree with you on this one, sir.

 

They sell it as a universal core so I'm guessing it's not direct fit.

 

yeah its universal iany one have it installed or any reviews?i wanna kno if its even better then stock.

 

Im straight on buying a universal core,

Im either looking to get a perrin , or an ETS (black) down the line when I buy a 20g evo 9 turbo.

 

If it's universal there's a good chance it isn't going to fit unless you fabricate brackets and new intercooler piping.

 

spend your money with dyno proven results, i dont see mishimoto posting up dyno results like AMS,ETS,Buschur do...id rather know what im getting then hope its what i want

i have an ETS for the record 3.5" and it out breathes the stocker awesome and has no feelable pressure loss (never flow tested it) but i would never get another

 

Niiiiiiice

I'll be going for a 3''

 

i know the thread is old but i am wondering if anyone has had a chance to put one of these mishimoto intercoolers on. I wonder how much worse or better they are than stock and other ebay intercoolers.

 

+1
Any takers on if there good. I like the idea of Black intercooler on my white car.

 

ETS offers an anodized intercooler. Unless you'd like to be a test dummy for a generic ebay-esque core I suggest you go with ETS.

 

im gonna be giving there 4in a shot

 

I wouldn't consider Mishimoto an "ebay" intercooler.

 

I had one on for a while. Consider this an "unofficial review" if you may, since i never went to the dyno etc etc. For the price like a lot of people have mentioned is a steal. the car did feel more responsive on the throttle over stock. I eventually went with an AMS FMIC.

 

 

welds are very nice quality deffinently seems to be good quality. Mishimoto also offers a life time warranty, even in the case of a accident.
