Intercooler Decisions....decisions...decisions....

Ok.... So my inter-cooler is currently broke... Stupid plastic end tanks. GM wont cover it because they say i bottomed out and that's what caused the break....GAY

So here are my options:

Synapse
Hahn
Dejon
Crazy Steve

Am i missing any here?

I want something that is direct replacement.... I dont want to have to cut the bumper or anything.

I need oppinions guys.

Hahn is extremely expensive, but has awesome results. Crazy Steve is extremely inexpensive but i havnt seen any data on it.. plus herd about some issues. And there is everything in between.

Heres a Poll

I thought people have had to cut the bumper a bit with the Synapse? I could be wrong though, just what i read around, so if thats the case, Synapse wouldn't be your #1 option.

I have heard some people have had to and others have not so idk it is just luck I guess. Even if you did have to shave the bumper you couldnt tell. I just think it is better than Hahn's overpriced **** and I heard that the CS IC you have to adjust like some brackets or something. But I have never heard anything about the Dejon IC.

theres also smax but you have to trim the bumper and i dont think anyones used it on here other then the guy that prototyped it. personally i think those are the best having the integrated co2. they are also about the price of the hahn. i would go with synapse otherwise.

Synapse intercooler is great...the amount of plastic you have to cut is tiny and does absolutely nothing anyway.

I have Synapse as well. Unless you find a used Hahn IC you should get the Synapse.
