Sexual intercourse, also known as copulation or coitus, commonly refers to the act in which the male reproductive organ enters the female reproductive tract

Im not too sure Kj, it seems you have had a $1100 IC on your heart. Your bashing the guy way too much. Look at the Period. Period. Your on it. The guy is not forcing you to buy the IC just simpy saying for 300$ you could have the same as the Competitors.............

And for those whining that they spent that much on thier intercooler already well tough Sh*t, you should be looking for 1100$ DP's. Not bashing BT's thread. Don't know the Guy but Good work man.

I WANT A 300$ IC!!!!

Yep, that's a 3.5", so it has the same size as the Active Autowerke IC

I don't think you read what I wrote right. You're siding with me and you don't realize it.

I'm setting up a groupbuy with the swedish company. I've looked around in the US and couldn't find the measurements Big Tom had. I'd rather stick with that rather than getting a crappy one that seems similar.

Just want to make sure things are cleared up with them about the cores first.

I'll start a new thread soon and it is definitely dubbed the "Big Tom" Intercooler!

Ha, ha... You guys are funny! Good luck with the group buy!

Xaero · 09-16-2010, 03:14 PM

Hard to find a 4" core with those dims ... 3.5s are plenty though.

Rotorocious · 09-16-2010, 07:16 PM

Can we make a parts list (U.S)?

Anyone know of a good/good price place to get all those couplers in the same place?

Didn't Big Tom already provide one? Based on the 3.5" core from fleabay and the parts list provided by BT and purchased through Siliconeintakes.com, someone should be able to put one of these together for under $350 shipped to thier door.
