I believe Terry said that these were basically cheap Chinese-made intercoolers that perform well for their price. It's not actually their own intercooler, just some generic Chinese brand that seems to do OK.

IMHO, I think you're better off getting an ER, Wagner FMIC or something like that.

These are chinese intercoolers that will give you better performance than stock but you are still better off going with a quality brand to get the most out of your car

Another cost to keep in mind is shipping, all quality FMIC are offered with free shipping from trusted vendors. We and everyone else charge shipping on the Phoenix one
