miatauser123 02-28-2013 11:42 PM

weak_sauce 03-01-2013 02:10 PM

Was mine one of those 3?

miatauser123 03-01-2013 04:20 PM

You bet your sweet ass it is. Just PM your tracking.

Any idea when you expect these to go out?

miatauser123 03-06-2013 08:04 AM

Hey Scott - yours is tomorrow.

miloiii123 03-07-2013 07:20 PM

option 2 fit ps and ac?

miatauser123 03-07-2013 07:35 PM

The 550 core fits NB with AC and power steering. It will hit the AC canister on the NA vehicles.

miloiii123 03-07-2013 07:37 PM

What about the 350? I've got an na with ps and ac thats my dd that i want to start piecing turbo parts together.

miatauser123 03-07-2013 07:39 PM

Flawless fitment. Direct bolt in. I've got a few out there already.

MacGuffin 03-13-2013 08:18 PM

do you have a tracking number for me?

For those doubting this intercooler, don't.

The 350hp core fit flawlessly on an NA with AC. It took me a half hour max to remove my old IC and install this one.

No rubbing or interference at all. I moved the AC canister up slightly, and bent it towards the passenger side and it was plenty out of the way.

Oops. lol.

Forgot to tell you mine showed up the other day, haven't had a chance to try and fit it though. Looks super awesome though!

miatauser123 03-14-2013 12:56 PM

That looks great - Can't wait to see this thing on the road. Thanks for the support Erat.

viperormiata 03-14-2013 01:46 PM

Any idea if a 350 can reasonably handle 400hp in spurts? I'll never hit a track or be in boost for longer than 15 seconds at a time.

What I mean to say is, fuck I want one.

18psi 03-14-2013 01:54 PM

if you're on pump gas and want to run 400whp you need to get the 550 big boy

miatauser123 03-14-2013 02:29 PM

Well to answer the question: this IC flows 520 CFM at 1.5PSi pressure drop that's it's efficent range. So you'll be fine at a higher flow, your turbo will just work a little harder to produce the power.

But if you can swing it, yes the big "big boy" (thanks Vlad) would be a better choice.

No no, you're supposed to tell me everything will be alright. Puppies and unicorns.

a/c woes...

1vicissitude 03-15-2013 01:25 PM

Do you have any pictures showing where the big boy version inlet pipe meets the turbo? Where is the BOV placed?

It's just the intercooler.

FM and BEGi pipes work with it just fine.

Or make your own. ;)

Fits nicely here - Passenger side, just after the intercooler.

Trust me I want one to. Don't want to cut the car and trying to convince myself the "baby cooler" would be enough for 250-300max whp. Still convincing.

The "Baby cooler" is still a 350hp core. The one that Erat installed is the "baby".

Amellrotts 03-20-2013 07:57 AM

WHO BOUGHT THE FUEL PUMP oh your other thread? If it was not me and you have not yet shipped (two weeks) PLEASE REFUND MY MONEY. Hey, I think the other guy who also paid for it and has not yet gotten it feels the same? Now, if I can just find someone trust worthy to get a IC from?

I apologize, still trying to sort out who is who. One of you sent a payment and didn’t say anything. I don’t keep close enough eye on my PayPal account I suppose.

I take it your last name is Amell.. (You are both named Chris.) I'll send you tracking now boss.

Amellrotts 03-20-2013 09:25 AM

Thank you!

miatauser123 03-20-2013 09:29 AM

Not a problem, again I apologize.

Martin M - I have tracking for you too (intercooler) and don't recall what your screen name is. Please shoot me a PM.

Just a heads up to anyone else. I paid over a month ago (Feb 21st) and still no intercooler. I've been told that it's "shipping tomorrow" for 16 days now. I got a tracking number that shows USPS has been notified of the package on March 7th, but still hasn't shipped. Please be cautious buying. Hopefully he's good for it, but I'm certainly getting paranoid at this point.

MacGuffin 03-22-2013 09:52 AM

I've also sent payment awhile ago and still haven't received a tracking number.

Scott - check the tracking number again. (they actually wont update the tracking because I waited so long to ship it after I printed the label but it will show when it's delivered) Took me longer than I'd like but yours shipped earlier this week. My apologies buddy.

Aaron I'm looking yours up now. You might be my last one.

miatauser123 03-22-2013 12:46 PM

Rex (NY) - Delivery scheduled tomorrow before 4:30

Scott Y - Yours shows delivered
Tai B - Delivered
Jesus S - Delivered
Brandon S - Delivered
Dillon - Picked up

rex1223 03-22-2013 02:03 PM

Sent payment 2 0r 3 weeks ago, still no tracking # as promised, paranoid is just around the corner.

Rex

rex1223 03-22-2013 02:17 PM

Spoke too soon, just got the tracking # I f it gets here soon I'm happy.

Rex

miatauser123 03-22-2013 02:35 PM

Sheesh guys :) - I told most of you there was going to be a build time with these. I'm not a machine, or Amazon. Just trying to hook a few of you guys up. I do however apologize for over promising my abilities to a couple of you. I'm glad everyone is sorted out now and hopefully happy!

pdexta 03-23-2013 05:55 PM

Mine just showed up today and looks great! Sorry to to make a big scene, I was just getting nervous after so much time passed.

Chilicharger665 03-23-2013 10:17 PM

Mine got here just fine a long time ago and I definitely appreciate the work! I also saw your article on motoiq!

czubaka 03-23-2013 11:58 PM
