Default Saab Intercooler FMIC

I've been seeing a couple posts over on Honda-Tech about using Saab 9-3 intercooler part number 4729521. The dealer cost/employee price on this item is only $125, and retail is usually only $150-$175. The dimensions are 21.75 x 7 x 2.25. This FMIC has black plastic endtanks.

Some pictures I stole off H-T:





Opinions? I want a FMIC for my Integra LS turbo, 8 psi, T3 .42/.48 or .60, stock internals, project. But I'm not too hip on spending the money on a Spearco. The other option is the $250 30x6x3 all-aluminum eBay FMICs.

Looks like a pretty good FMIC, even though the car in the pic is only running atmospheric presure PSI..

$150 would be a good deal I think, plus It'd be brand new and made by some ***** that have been turboing cars for over 20 years.

I'd get some nice shiny endtanks made. Those look like ***.

That guy is turbocharging his car. I guess the turbo just isn't in yet. Don't be hating.

I heard it could handle up to 18 psi, but that could have been an off-the-wall guess.
