yea most of those big name brand intercoolers actually use Spearco Cores. You can spearco coolers around the $300.

check out the PSI drop as well.

I had a problem with the pipe running to the intake manifold. The bend was wrong.

Thats why I am using the S14/15 one. Bolted right up. No mods necessary.
