It's a copy of the greddy kit. I have the kit as made by greddy but haven't found instructions for it. I might tear into this weekend to see if I can get it made up

love the brake fluid reservoir cap!

... actually the price on this kit is worth it just because of the TB elbow or compression tube.

For sure it’s a 100% replica in every way to the Greddy kit all the way down to the bracket on the ICP right before the throttle body elbow.

Now why did they have to make this after I bought the official greddy kit? I only payed $700 but still. Even looks more polished then the greddy piping. Sad greddy just sad.

Oh man, I just saw this kit on ebay and came here and searched to see if anybody else bought one lol.

In the next couple month, im planning to go stage 3 BNR turbo, and was thinking of either a vmount or a fmic with this intercooler kit.
Only thing that bothers me is the airflow to the radiator. If I do go front mount I would probably make some air vents from the sides to flow air to the rad anyways.

I bet the throttle body elbow is about half the cost of the kit right there lol.
I was going to get other kits, but since this is a direct copy of the greddy kit, hell, it would make my life easier installing it.

i was worried about the same problem with air flow and it proved true, it did block alot of flow. but i did some things to fix it and have no problems now, look for a thread i posted about my undertray and hit me up if you need some tips on what i did to keep my car cool with this kit.

everything is going good with it, have not had any problems yet, there was minor fitment problems at the beginning but it was fixed with a batt relocation kit.

+1 I am running the same kit on my rx7. For some reason they sent me 2 couplers that were too big, and no instrutions made it interesting. I had to buy a slightly smaller battery to get the pipeing to fit. Then like he said you move the coil pack and some of the little things on the passenger side.

(note the pipe into the intercooler is not installed )
