They'll do that. AMS dishes out great parts though.

ETS has great parts and reliability as well, so if you are really concerned about price, ETS is for you.

Very happy Perrin customer here!

However, if I had to choose between the 2, I'd go ETS.

Both make great parts but, think in this instance I'd choose ETS over UR. UR is good with Exhaust. BTW...nothin wrong with AMS.

Thanks Guys! I would have replied sooner but we just got back from SEMA. I'm a bit tired

The 3.5" is a great intercooler if you plan on going with bolt on's or even an upgraded stock frame turbocharger. Here are the break downs for the intercoolers. This is with no tuning, just bolting on the intercooler and going.

3.0" - 15whp over stock
3.5" - 17whp over stock
4.0" - 22whp over stock

The reason for the gains are due to the size of the intercooler. These cars flow a ton of air volume due to the dual mivec that the factory intercooler is actually restrictive. The best part about an intercooler is keeping the tune consistent with the cooler air intake temps.

Thanks!

Michael
