Is this intercooler a good buy? What do you think of it? Which one is better?

What car is it going in Spearco makes a nice intercooler, and the one in the picture is a bit smaller than the first picture. The first one is something like 31" wide... Will that fit in your front? If so, then it's your call to which one you like and how much $$$ you want to spend. The 31" almost looks like one of the Tyrus intercooler. (both are pretty nice)

Buy the first one, its bigger and cheaper and he has better feadback. Besides a can of spray paint and a stencil does not make it a spearco intercooler, I have never seen a srearco that said spearco on it. Check the other post about the missing link and all the counterfiting that goes on on Ebay.

Ok, yeah take some measurements and make sure you can get it to fit before you buy it. And then I would go with the first one too.

If you can fit the first one, go for it. That seems like a very good price. As for the second one, I have the same one(only bigger) and it is very nice as well. I doubt it is a Spearco, but it is still a bitchn' intercooler. BTW, what is wrong with thier feedback? I only seen a couple negatives and they were from stupid impatient people that left unfair negative feedback within a week or two. They are located in Canada which takes a little longer to get here since it has to pass through Customs officials.

There is nothing wrong with there feedback, but the first one is better. they have 4500 positives to the other guys 350 or so, they are probably both OK to deal with but I always go for the higher feadback rating, and the intercoolern is bigger.
