hey, just a heads up from nico for the ca18det guys. Well alot of these guys have been buying the ssautochrome intercooler kits and they have been saying how they are worth the money. Hey for $295 usd its a pretty good deal and they have been saying how the endtanks are actually welded on there really good. well here is a picture of the kit:

No I wasn't being sarcastic, that's extremely cheap for an intercooler kit. I wouldn't buy one, but I'm sure it will appeal to a lot of people beacuse it'll do the job, and it's inexpensive.

We need more posts like this, making us aware of what's new in the industry, or what works well etc, rather than "what should I do with my spare time".

is the piping made of steel or aluminum? its hard to tell from looking at it. They only thing to note on these kits is that the CORES are generic and do not have the best flow or pressure drop ratings, they are still good though and by far better than the SMIC.

I am not sure what the piping is made out of but like you said, it is way better than the smic. That is a piece of junk. But you get what you pay for, and for $300 usd its a good deal. i am going to order one really soon and I will post pictures of how it had worked out.
