cool man, thanks for the link. im looking to upgrade to frontmount pretty soon, and i like they way yours fill up the entire main frontend opening, and how you can see the endtanks and piping through the other openings. if it really is only 1100 bucks i might just get it

not bad at all. If you were in the area, id let you drive it and see for yourself. It spools up very fast.

well think about it. te stock intercoler doesnt flow that well. especialy if you have more boost than stock. that stock intercooler was designed to only flow stock boost. an aftermarket core is designed to flow substantialy more boost from bigger turbos. it would flow boost from a stock turbo better than the stock intercooler could. if there is any lag it would come from the fact that there is more piping for the boost to travel through, not the core itself.
