[QUOTE="jrgoffin, post: 15854633, member: 4360"] Yes... I read that thread and a few others out there before acquiring this intercooler. The OP there mentioned that it seemed to flow both more air and water (which I'd agree with), then also added that his IAT's were lower and recovered quicker. After that, it just became a "POS" and was sent back with no more details. Mine fit perfectly, and for comparison between this and the OE, there are details on my site (I was given a junk factory version to chop up). While I can't comment yet on driving temps since it's still winter, my IAT2 temps with the Griffin version are only about 20° or so above IAT1 (which will hit about 80-85° inside my garage). Of course much of that could be attributed to the switch to the Whipple from a ported Eaton, but I am completely confident that the new intercooler will perform just as well if not better than the Garrett version. In any case, the OE intercooler supply is drying up, so the choice here is not a broad one when it comes to replacement. At least if the only issue is the rot of the sealant, that can be easily fixed. As guys pull bonehead moves and crack them while running straight water with freezing temps, the used market for them continues to get smaller and smaller. Mine installed on the Whipple as an FYI...
