If you go with a DIY cooler (do it yourself) know that you have to cut all your own pipes, get flanges to weld the new bypass on, and buy a vortech (or other) aftermarket bypass. With a cooler the stock vortech bypass will more than likely surge and cause problems.

Its a big job... I should know. My cooler and pipipng + valve etc have been sitting in the garage for months. Now that my OT is done at work for hte year and its going to warm up soon... the red car will have a nice fat FMIC soon, and hopefully MF will have a DIY writeup with pics too.

the easiest way to tell the worth of an intercooler is the inlet / outlet, on a large size intercooler - it its not offest, its crap - this is a design que, hinting at overal construction, design and quality
