Anyone have any experience with these? http://forums.corral.net/forums/powe...er-piping.html
Anyone think this is a good or bad deal? And i am a little confused, since the air enters and exits on the same side does this cause a air restriction?

i bought mine from them. its built nice. i wouldnt buy that one. same side isnt a restriction, but would be a nightmare to fab your pipe. plus i bought my ic for 290. wasnt a bad price. no piping with it.

Treadstone makes good intercoolers. There was a member on here named furinox that went from a horizontal core to a vertical core treadstone and gained power and boost while still maintaining cool charge temps. I'll pull up the thread and link you to it.

Check out the thread and the links within the thread. They will for sure steer you away from cxracing. Unless you're going big boost, I'd go with the treadstone vertical core.

I have one on my car, but not like that one. Inlet and outlet on different sides, i am very pleased with it. no problems bought it two years ago. But yeah like most people said it would be heard to do the pipe routing, on the one your looking at.
