I ended up with a free 3.5" AGP Intercooler through a deal and was planning on putting it on my white 9. I have heard okay things about it. Does anyone have more information on this intercooler? I would like to use it if it's worth it.

I love saving money where I can but a "cheap" intercooler is not cheap when it causes catastrophic failure. Save your money use the stocker or do like most are saying and buy a good used core.

To put it simply, there are things you can cheap out on and get away with it, but an intercooler is not one of them. Especially if you plan to make any sort of power and track it.

Although its not very common. In high horse power applications, sky high IAT's can cause enough knock to window a block.
