No.

"PSi Drop under 0.2. Other Intercooler usually drop 10Psi Some are More."
-10psi drop? Dude doesn't know what he's talking about.

"JDM 28"x7"x2.5" Turbo Front Mount Intercooler"
-JDM, yo! What the f$#$ does JDM have anything to do with this?

"Vehicle Apllication:

Universal (Can fit any set up with modifications)"

-Ding ding ding!!!! We have a loser. It's just some stupid chromed intercooler with some 45 and 90 degree bend piping. Keep in mind, as well, that any intercooler with a coating is going to reduce it's heat transfer ability.

haha, i gues you get what you pay for. thought it was lame, just wanted a second opinion to confirm

yeah no way. if its like that pic... theres no way the bpv flange will work

i saw that too and wouldn't that put it on the underside or inside(right by the motor)???kinda ummm....what's the term i'm looking for, jerry rigged?

that kit would work if the piping were correct, unfortunately its "universal" so they put ever car out there and make a sale auction for every car and try to get sales. They probably sell the same exact kit for a dodge neon and say it fits. But it's all about the piping.

seriously tho, this is what we all need, a cheap affordable intercooler. its obvilusly not that expensive if they can sell them this cheap. A simple core, and the CORRECT pipes for the MS3 should run $200-$300 all together tops, not $700+ like they cost

No, don't buy from that guy. I've checked out those FMICs that he sells, they are the tube and fin types, crappy. If you are looking for a deal, then check out the stuff that CX Racing has on there or on their website www.cxracing.com Another tip that would help is to take your front bumper off, and measure where your FMIC would go. That will give you the right size to look for when getting a FMIC. And for the piping, you just have to estimate, but it is possible to customize it.. I'm just about done with mine but it's on the MSP.

He is a little backed up with work and stuff right now because of his big move...but exhaust depot does sell a piping only kit. It runs around 300 dollars if I remember correctly.

Oh yeah Zack exhaust depot is in orlando now so that might work out well for you.

Absolute cheapest way to go would be get his piping kit, and use the 30 percent cash back thing on ebay and buy a decent fmic core on ebay.

dont his piping kits make the IC off center?
