Front Mount Intercooler

[Nepharius]

Ok I was looking around ebay to see if there was anything interesting and I found this

Front Mount Intercooler

The price? $180 plus shipping, $165 gets you a total of US$345. I can't work this one out is it a con? Are the pipes made out of straws and the intercooler a cardboard box?

Although I did notice this

This one just set off my too good to be true alarm wanted to make sure I wasn't going crazy.

Hmm do they do the same thing for the 6? I might be interested if they did!

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Get a decent kit from a reputable manufacturer. You can't afford it to stuff up in mid-flight or you will be limping home. Ask yourself why most good kits are over $1000. Even 2nd hand they will be more than the price indicated. The higher price of quality is forgotten far more quickly than the long-lasting, bitter taste of being soundly conned, with no recourse to getting your hard-earned back. Ebay is a real trap for suckers.

First thing I'll say is 11.5" high won't fit without cutting the bumper reo.

Don't bother. 200mm or 8" is the tallest you can fit to a 3 before you need bumper mods.

Can I just say, I wouldnt touch it for the slogan alone..

TACO TACO!




Honestly though, Ive heard some 'cheap performance' horror stories from Ebay - Buyer beware.. if its too good to be true it usually is!
Last thing you want is your engine or turbo to eat metal fragments..

I think this quote says it all!!

Any idea what size the MPS6 can fit with out bumper mods?
Was looking at the CX Racing site and was thinking about this one

To big? Not big enough?

Don't worry guys I never had any intention of buying was just curious how they could possibly offer it so damn cheap. It still seems weird, I mean sure they can be shithouse parts but I just can't fathom how they can sell it at that price no matter how shit it is.

Atm I am thinking of getting a new TMIC before a tune up of the car and a new BPV in case the stock can't handle extra boost. Just came across this while looking into FMIC. Atm Im not sure I can justify the extra cost of a FMIC.
