I've used them, as well as a few others I know, all good quality parts with no issues... AA, VRSF, etc all started somewhere at one point, they are just following suit.. My buddy has their M3 exhaust on his e92 and it sounds mean and has also had no issues for about a year now..

No fitting issues? Do you notice any power difference?

Once you receive the intercooler check the core , compare it to a quality one and you will get why this FMIC is so cheap

a link to an end all thread, with all due repsect, i figured that would be the response. im more interested in bad logs from cheap intercoolers, can you lead me in that direction. someone posted up some logs in another thread and ended with 111 vs 158 on a stock ic. pretty decent.

I track my car, in the summer, in the south, all the time. Temps in the upper 90's, high humidity. I have zero problems, car never misses a beat, and it was an affordable FMIC. So it works great for me, easy install with a little bit of plastic trimming, more power in the heat and great throttle response.
