I honestly have no idea. PM Tiago on here and he can take care of you. I found out about it when reading one of TSCompUSA's threads about a car he tuned that was running it.

Same thing I was thinking. Factory intercooler is mated well to the factory turbo. I jumped on the ETS black friday sale and got the full kit, but don't really need it at this point. Cams would be a better choice.

Check out the above threads. I love when people compare a cheap eBay style core vs our. The threads above explain the differences.

Also most cast end tanks with a 2.5" outlet have an ID of 2.0" which is a huge restriction.

Some food for thought
