Default Intercooler brands?

I know people have had good luck with Godspeed intercoolers although I'm Leary. There twin turbo intercooler core size seems comparable to treadstones twin turbo intercooler. I know intercoolers like presicion are big dollars but have more efficient cores. Was just wondering if that god speed intercooler for the price is too good to be true for the price. ThxINTERCOOLER SPEC:

People, myself included, have had a lot of luck with frozenboost air to water intercoolers. Cheap and effective. I did upgrade the pump to a rule 2000 bilge pump and large 1" lines though.
