looks like they improved the intercooler from before to fit the evo mounts, BUT they reduced the inlet/outlets to two inch pipe. ///why?

Actually it's a knock-off of the Perrin evo FMIC. I would like to see one in person, because $400 is a little high for another untested china land product.

I would like to know too, if anyone has tried the newer style OBX at all, b/c usually you cant go wrong on intercoolers, although some do.

Anyways, I think they designed the first one to see how it would go over and it obviously didnt so now they have fixed it, b/c lord knows that they didnt test fit it up and just did by eye or something...

. Overall it doesnt look bad, but I would like to try it and see if it is worth while...? Any comments?
