We're not launching the space shuttle here... this stuff is easily and cheaply done.

The complete intercooler was only $250 plus 5 hours to install it. I cant see where your saving any money at all. The 90s have to cost something.

Godamn you are ignorant aren't you..

Intercooler is $90~
Labor for welding work... cost me $100.00

Sooo for that paticular intercooler it would have cost me $190.00 out the door and on my way...

My intercooler was $369.99 so I actually ended up paying about $500 total for it but it's been a fantastic intercooler. Much better than any ebay core crap!

I went down there ripped off the Synapse, we mocked up the new 90's and mounting tabs and away we went.

It's not that hard. LOL

Uh, anyone specializing in I/C piping and such will have them in stock... I know mine does.

From 2" all the way up to 3" elbows.

Would a pair of these not work?
Is the Dejon inter cooler thicker then our stock one? It doesn't seem like it has any surface area advantages.

I had a E-Bay special IC in my Talon pushing over 300hp running those silicone 90's and they worked great.

It's a 3" core vs. a 2.5" core. It's also taller by an 1" as well.

If you use those and have stock charge pipes you will need a straight metal coupler to fit in between because the stock pipes have rubber ends with built in clamps....

I was thinking more so for the guys with aftermarket CP's.
