I almost just took my 2 audi5000 cores, welded them together and made some end tanks, I'm pretty sure this will perform a zillion times better for me.

Your right, just an intercooler, so let's support them, giv ethem buisness thereby aloowing them to continue making (mostly) a subpar product, mani's , turbo's etc so the idiot kids out there will keep buying them instead of looking a little harder and buying quality stuff from people we know and trust..im sure hotsex would rather build mani's for the ---- of it then actually sell them and make some cash...ah yes, gotta love capitalism....

well, I surely ain't going to buy a $600 intercooler because of your thoughts on SSauto... lol

this was purely a thread about my dealings with them as a business through e-bay and not about their sub par other products. I'm sure it would have been the same no matter what i bought from them, I was just smart and bought something that should actually work.

some companies have really shitty products, and really really shitty service, no communication, takes forever for them to ship etc. but SSauto was awesome.

I been rocking one of their intercooler for about two years now. They are well built, a bit on the heavy side, but no big deal. Best power I made with it was 573whp and some 375wtq.

The openings are 3" in and out, core looks verry good and end tanks are tapered one piece design. I was scheptic about them too, but it turned out to be ok.

Don't get me wrong, I would not rock any other products from them. ;D

SSAC intercoolers and BOV's are "okay." The IC core isn't optimum, but if you go a little big with one, it does a decent job of chilling things.

Everything else, especially the manifolds, is a dice roll to some extent or another.

Why dosnt everyone just ---- off with their 400hp comments Its getting kinda old seeing it on ever thread, I'd like to see how much horsepower all the ---- talkers made, 400 was his goal before he even did the setup, and he's pretty damn close with bugs still being worked out.

My goal is 250, but i'll probably only make 200

Becuase we had to hear for 6 months how it was a guarantee that it would easily break 400whp. It didn't, so now we get to bust his balls for having to hear over and over how 400 was easy.

SSautopoop def has some of the best shipping out there.It is super quick,well packaged[almost overkill] and they mark cross border stuff as used rechromed parts to save on customs.Basically other than there manifolds all there products are a good value.Obviously they are not as good as big name expensive parts but that is a given.We just got a intercooler kit from them for a S13 240 and it is great.Piping is all shiny and lines up damm close to perfect,decent silicone couplers and all tbolt clamps included.It was one quarter of the price of the Greddy,HKS etc kits and almost as good.
