Dinan
$1235
VRSF 7"
$449
Just as a comparison. You are paying for the warranty, that is the price difference. Dinan is very expensive compared to its competition due to this very reason.

The price difference is more than just the warranty. Dinan is made in the U.S. vs other intercoolers which are overseas. Also Dinan parts go through CARB testing. In CA its a big bonus staying emission complaint when it comes to smog. Dont have to hassle removing and reinstalling stock parts to pass smog.
