Yo guys look what I found on ebay..

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MakeTrack=true

What do you guys think? Looks like ssautrochrome's intercooler but cheaper. The seller is located right in my town so I might check it out in person.

It has one major problem as does the XSPOWER one shown by JDawG707,
no duct to allow only cold air to go through it.

Without a duct, it is useless. Thus you will have to make your own.

The owner probably just bought it from Ebay as well, and then didn't like what he/she saw, so it's back up for sale.

What would you recommend for a SMIC? I don't want blockage to the radiator.

Think your right. Looks like he sanded the XSPOWER logo from all the swirls marks on the top plate.

Maybe not the best way of removal, but I cant blame him, that "XS POWER!!!" on the top is just an eye sore.
