sweet, how is the build on the intercooler, does it look like it will hold up to boost?

Waiting on some more goodies to show up, So I got most of the piping figured out, and since they screwed up my bov order and sent a gold one, I painted it trans blue and polished my vaf. Figured a pic would tide you guys over.   :rolleyes:

I've been running a 'cheap' ebay intercooler for almost a year now. Its held up awesome, works great! The build quality is pretty nice too, it didnt strike me as cheap

I already said, its an e-bay special.

Lots more polishing on the vaf while I wait for more parts.

I'm going to eventually run a ram air style intake setup, scoop or something of the sort.

Might change the mounting for right now, depends.
