Any vendors with HPF intercooler and gen 2 exhaust

Any vendors with either or both of these in stock, please pm me. I would prefer a black non oem flange intercooler, but can get it anodized myself if needed. Really don't wanna have to cut and weld the oem flanges, but will if i absolutely have to. Please pm me your best price shipped to 45039 and which you have. ONLY IN STOCK READY TO SHIP ITEMS PLEASE

The fact that there is no warranty does NOT drive price up. The rights are owned by another individual so I'm sure you will see the exact exhaust pop up under another name.

honestly, the fact that neither part has any moving parts makes me not give a shit about warranty on them anyway. If it was a turbo or a motor or something like that, then yeah...give me the warranty please

I would agree, but you can use the fact that the warranty is void means the value is not as high. But if you want to pay a premium, go ahead. These guys think they are riding on gold now.

Is the HPF intercooler really better then the HELIX or AA intercooler? I kinda doubt it.

Is the HPF exhaust really better then the numerous other exhausts available from reputable vendors?

I'd buy from someone that is still in business, but that is just me.

Yes, I recall reading in a thread that Jake@PTF wasn't that impressed with the IAT's on numerous cars fitted with the HPF intercooler.

Exhaust-wise, HKS and AE make a quality product. There is really no way of knowing what corners were cut at HPF as they were going out of business.

I'm sure the owner has read countless reviews on different exhaust/intercoolers... I don't fancy the intercooler too much but the hpf exhaust is bad ass..

None of the other exhausts produce the sound of the hpf exhaust.. sounds like a bear roaring after catching a fish! A very big fish!

I like that it is a single pipe, since I'll be going single turbo, and then has a clean split in the rear unlike the AMS(?)

The only thing I think the HPF intercooler had going for it was that it connected to the stock hoses without any drama.

Easy to install and remove for warranty work, but as far as overall design and effectiveness, I think there are better offerings.

I always thought HPF was overrated. Lots of hype it seems like to me.

Yeah, I thought you were the guy going single turbo. Look into a different intercooler, I'm sure Shiv would advise the same.
