Ebay intercoolers: Which one might be good?

I used to have an "RS-500" intercooler. It looks like this:

MAN that looks familiar...

I think I have something like that on the way, but the outlets are a little different. I'll let you know.
:-P
 
hellllloooooooooo pressure drop. try it and see. and do the oil cooler daisy chain while you're at it. and then compound your problems with compound turbos. twin exhaust? dual coils? twin plug head? two throttle bodies? pulse paired header(s)? endless possibilities of duplication, all of it bad juju

Not bad? Those are magazine ad prices! I can maybe see $480 for the finished product if the performance is stellar but not for just a core. Call me spoiled by our very cheap DIY aftermarket but really...

lol. Then stick with the ebay $100 intercoolers and $135 turbos.

fwiw, even that intercooler in stock ebay form required the apparently kingly sum of ~$250 when I bought it several years ago.

i went with the $1200 turbo and the $150 ebay intercooler. i figure it's better than the $1200 i/c and $150 turbo. you tuned it out to 370whp @16psi, not too hateful.
