Is this the O2 housing from ebay people like. I got it for $65 brand new with gasket and mounting hardware. The one guy on eBay has a lot of these. Looks pretty nice.

Personally if i was to do it over, I would buy a different higher quality pillar pod. I know none are perfect, but I think this one has more imperfections than most.

i have the ebay 02 housing and knock on wood it works great...apparently the ebay intercooler will show gains over the stocker with a tune (slight) and based on what i have read it does not dissapate heat very well at all...bascially the amoutn of peformance gain fromt he intercooler isn't enought too buy it cuz the damage you are causing you engine due to excess heat...

thats what i read

I personally have the Ebay intercooler rite now in my room and i am reading everything about it til i install it...someone please post up a graph comparing it to the stocker as well as the temp logs or something to that extent!!!

The ebay intercooler is WAY better than the stock intercooler. There is a thread with a dyno sheet. If you are looking for ridiculous cooling performance, go with a race core from a known race manufacturer (i.e. Nisei, HKS, Full Race, AMS, Buschur, etc.)

sonicofadz can u show the the thread with the dyno sheet proving the ebay intercooler is better than the stocker because if there was such a thing I am sure the debate would be over...and in regards to cooling, I am wondering if it cools just as well if not better than the stocker...i don't want to drop 600 on a name brand one if the ebay one can do a better job than the stocker...

Could you post the sellers name on ebay where you got that o2 housing, because SSAC has been sending out junky ones with the o2 sensor placed at the bottome of the piping.
