i have an ebay fmic 31x11x3..i couldnt be happier..cools my 16g perfectly and the welds are top notch.

 

all i can say is you get what you pay for. i went with wat i thought was a good deal and got ripped big time.

 

Check out extremepsi for their "street" or check out dsmotorsports for their "budget".

Both very good and around 700. Though i'm sure you could make your own piping and buy a core and make a kit yourself for MUCH cheaper.

 

If your going to go with an ebay type intercooler, SS Autochrome has a full 1g kit for 295. All you have to do is send an email to sales@ssautochrome.com and ask them if the 1g DSMTuners group buy is still going on, they will say yes and send you payment instructions.

Mines is off of ebay. It measures 24x6x3.
Remember, they come out from the end so you have to be creative with the routing.
Also, the other cars pictured are also ebay fmic with custom piping.
They work great!

 

I had on of those...biggest mistake...dat shit whistled boost leaks..... so i got a refund and bought the SBR race core....SO WORTH IT...ITS HUGE....i dont care wat anybody says about it being too big.....ITS NOT...plus u can say....."SHIET I NEED TA CUT DA BUMBER...CAUSE DAT INTERCOOLER IS HUGE"

Easier bolt on than my ebay intercooler too...even with my custom piping

 

49 bux???? is it made of plastic?

 

I have one of the 24x9x3 inch bar and plate ebay intercoolers with 2.5 inch inlet/outlet. Never had a leak. Looks great. I paid $140 for mine but it looks like prices have gone up since then. I must say that the intercooler you have picked out looks like some serious cheap quality. Shop around and find something better than that. Between the intercooler and pipes you will probably need to spend around $300. Good luck.

I got the same thing. The one I got is 24*10*3. It has very nice welds, and end tanks. It's bar and plate just like spearco cores. Mine came with 3' inlet, and outlet. I got for $150 with shipping from ebay. It's not exactly a bolt on, and you have to make all your own piping. But it works great I ran 26psi many times on pump gas and I'm very impreassed. Leaked tested not long ago, and no leaks. I tested a friends a DTV fab intercooler on my car before this one, and this one cools just as well IMO. I can run the same amount of boost and get the same airflow numbers. It may be cheap but it does require a lot of DIY fabrication.

I don't know about that $50 intercooler though. I can't really see the kind of finds it has inside. It may be ok, but you're taking a chance. That's extrememly cheap.

 

Just make sure if you're ordering from Egay, cough Ebay, that the measurements are right, some times they wont even be close to the same and will cost you so modification, and even when you do send them the payment, add a little note reminding them of the year/make/model you're getting it for, best of luck.

 

Is the SSAC group buy for 1G's only? Or does it not matter?

 

I bought another one, guys. It is $160 but at least it will allow for the shortest route possible.

That's not going to get you short routing...thats one setup for "stock route" piping.

 

just use the xs power 2g kit. it just takes a bit of fabbing up. theres a decent how to already.

 

I ordered my SSAC kit yesterday, $295 shipped can't be beat...

 

hey kscivic how long did it take them to respond to your email cuz its been 2 days allready and havnt responded?

 

I did a full fmic with piping for 459 here are some pics if u guys have anymore questions feel free to ask.

Shortest with a long jpipe..

 

Watch out for the SBR cores, there have been some problems with them leaking..

of course this is prone to all cores, but some will say unacceptible because of the amount you pay for it, which i stand for as well; while on the ebay cores it is expected, though it is more of a min. amount of cases.. conspiracy!

always check for leaks

 

yellow- did you re-route your p/s cooler lines?
