I use a New OEM one. Not a Re-Core

This is the one WeirRacing uses. He likes it, and I was thinking of picking one up

I bought one from B18TurboEf on here and Im super happy.It is 2" thick so it will cool significantly better than OE.He is good to deal with as well as he went out of his way to save me on brokerage as Im in Canada.

That one aaron is runnin glooks like mine. I have an aluminum core, but plastic tanks.

I think that mine is 1.5" thick, looks OE.

I like it, runs well, and for $50 shipped you can't go wrong.
