Where to get an Intercooler that DOESN'T suck.
I bought an eBay IC, specifically to fit my Civic without hacking my bumper up too much, and because according to the description, it was perfect (and 100$ shipped).
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=180078337942
So it arrives, I don't think twice, open it up, and start test fitting it. Hmm, seems tall... and thin... and WTF, these are tubes, not bars. And wait a sec, the inlet/outlets aren't centered.
Nope, not even close to 22x5x3.
I filed a paypal dispute, and the company replied, and will accept it back, give me all my money, including shipping and insurance, all I'm out is return shipping. Great.
Now, who the ---- do I get an IC from? I want that exact size, or close to it, nothing taller than 6". I want a thick core to make up for the lack of height, so either 2.5" or 3" thick, and 2.5" in/out, without square-*** tanks, preferably centered on the core. :1

Nope, he's still on vacation. Since August, must be nice. I'm willing to spend a little more than $100, but not the $200+ that everyone else wants... I just wish eBay sellers actually had what they advertise, I emailed 2 more sellers, and none of them will verify that what they send looks like whats in the ad, its always "We send what we have in stock, those measurements are just estimates, they could be off by 2" ..."
---- that.
---- that.
