Is This pettit racing Intercooler Any Good?
I am planning to buy a intercooler from a friend of mine, similar to the one on the picture below except its not painted black. It does include the air duct. I thought I ask you expert before I buy it. I am running the Apexi Dual intake filters and I was wondering if it would get in the way since this intercooler is bit bigger then the stock one. The only problem is that he lives in China and I am in Canada so I cant fit it or anything. Let me know. Thanks in advance.

That's the old style Pettit Coolcharge II. IMO, their best IC. There are several people on here, including me who are using them. You'll probably have to get creative to keep your Apexi filters though.
Here's an old shot of my engine bay when I had the HKS filters:

Alright, Thanks for your guys help. Its on its way to me. Do I need to change any of the factory piping? The only thing that worries me now is my Apexi intake. I think they will get in the way. Heres a link below of what those intakes look like.

Much larger than stock much wider than stock only a bit smaller than a large mount and you can retain the stock battery, the only thing that has to go is the stock air box......but who keeps that any way.

I tried to put in the Pettit racing intercooler in with my Apexi Intake and theres no way I can fit it. The Pettit Intercooler is wider then the oem one and the APexi Air filters get in the way. I was wondering if you guys can tell me if the HKS filter simular to the ones in the pics below will make it work?
