I sent them out. I didn't want people to think I was holding out on them. I have to get a account so I can host them!

Cool. I dont understand why you dont open the bmp in mspaint, then use it to adjust the size so you can just attach it. Those pics are not so detailed that they need to be large.

Now, on to the topic at hand. That's a NICE IC. Its like Bell does this for a living or something I assume those bolt holes line up with the bumper holes? Or are those bolt holes???

My Bell unit is supposed to be here next Wednesday. Placed the order today. Dual inlets/outlets.

What core size are you using?

Gerhard Scurhf is a good guy to work with.

Maybe I'm dense but I don't think its incredibly difficult to make two pipes merge into one.

Andy- that's a bad place for the trans cooler. I had mine there and when I stood it up,
it landed right on it breaking the lines.
Basically covered the car/track in trans fluid.

It was the last part to the build. Griffin had no idea when the were going to build it after waiting 2+ months.

Can you get me one in five days for less?

BTW, I gladly paid the $!!!!!

High quality cores are not cheap.

No doubt a quality intercooler... but there is no way that I would pay that kind of cash for it. I'd rather save a few buck by waiting, but that's just me. I got my intercooler directly from Griffin in less than two weeks and for far less than what you paid for your intercooler. What's the deal with Griffin lately?

It would be worth it to be to wait... but like I said... that's just me. In Griffin's defense, you have to understand that this is the busy time of the year. However, you would think with PSJ's "status" that he would be able to get one right away.
