wont know until someone tries it and reviews it. not all parts on ebay are junk. BUT that is a big chunk of change, and very critical part of your build/engine. personally I wouldnt try it unless it was proven by reliable sources

I might have a little ole 20 but i should be part of rbba club allready.

I know it was way to expensive and I was just talking about the way they cool the air. The only setup ive seen this on is a 1800hp mustang my buddy built. I dont see how this setup would cool air better seing how everything is still really close to the exhaust and turbo. It looks like the same old cheap exhaust manifold. What makes this more efficient then an air/air intercooler setup.

Google is your freind, you are also removing a TON of plumbing and volume from the intake tract.

Air to water is pretty badass, but IMO too much crap to fail on a street car!
