I ran just black spray paint on my Begi #1 intercooler for 4 years and it held up fine. I do not think durability is to big of an issue.

You guys really think that?
No, as obviously that wouldn't work and no one would buy any. I was just wondering why they're there in the first place, thinking about them from a manufacturing standpoint. But Vlad nicely cleared up what they're intended for.

A couple more of the black shipping today. I must say they do look really aggressive in black. Can't wait to see some install photos. Should look really mean.

I still want pics of the 350 in both black and silver on an NB with the nose installed. We've got plenty of pics of the big dog, but some of us don't need a core that large.

NA with the stage 2 in black, mind the mess in the middle of a engine rebuild.

On the site it says the larger core is not compatible with ac on the NA. Im guessing thats because of the receiver drier so my question is would it be possible to move it with some sort of custom ac line setup or would you be able to make a kit if there was enough demand?

A number of people have made it work by simply moving the canister. The aluminum lines are flexible if you're careful - We just don't want to "officially" recommend bending your AC lines.

As for a kit, it's not something that has been brought up in the past but we do have access to the Aeroquip high pressure AC lines. If you determine what might be needed, I'll gladly give you my cost on the hardware for development sake.

Let me know if you have any further questions.
