Best FMIC setup for $500-$600

Ok, I'm looking to get some kind of fmic setup for $500-$600. This eliminates the greddy kit...unless it's a really good deal on a used setup. The opinions on the ebay intercoolers and piping kits seems to be really mixed. Are their any of the ebay intercooloers that are actually decent? Anybody plumbed one of these up using the universal piping kits on ebay? What are some of you guys setups for around this price? Pics and details on intercooler sizes would be great.

I am currently in the middle of doing the ebay intercooler thing...I am still waiting on the intercooler (it should ship tomorrow, he says). The piping came and is almost enough to do 2 cars!!! It came with a couple of 2 1/2' straight sections, 4- 90* bend sections, 2- 45* bend sections, all the couplers and clamps and the intercooler (core dimesions: 22"x6"x3") I have mock fit everything (haven't cut the holes yet) it looks like it is going to be perfect...we'll see. I'll post pics as we are doing it and when it's done...So far the total is $230 for the intercooler and piping, $35 for the BOV flange, and I think I am going to purchase the greddy throttle body connector ($90)....We'll see what happens

XS power makes good intercoolers for cheap, then just buy some ebay piping and piece it together.

hmmm...I didn't know corksport made intercoolers. I'll check into them. I've liked everything I've ever purchased from them. I'll also look into the XS power IC's.

What size ic's are you guys finding fit well, without too much modification?
