I got mine in the mail last week. Very high quality. I am waiting to get my intervooler piping before I install it as my pipes are messed up

Any pics with the bumper on?

Also, turbogarrett, did you remove the upside down logo? If so, with what, paint stripper?

most likely the comparison is skewed. I bet the stock intercooler was heatsoaked and then tested so when they did the swap, the air even before boost was nice and cool from a cool intercooler.

I just sprayed over it with a few coats of silver paint. I'll take some pics with the bumper on.

whats the big deal about these? they are pretty much identical to an oem intercooler in size. i dont see these being better then stock by much.
