dude what the hell, thats got nothing to do with i said, i never said they cant be improved. about the only way you could improve an intercooler coolerwise is making it bigger anyway.
if you learnt anything about how they actually cool you will know that there isnt much else that can be done to improve them.
this is why i didnt want to post anything, it seems your getting cut by my comments "piss fight" we arent fighting im just stating facts i dont care if you go buy a 1500$ intercooler, just dont go posting around saying its better then the 130$ intercooler as your just lying to people and some sucker might believe and go waste some money.
and no i didnt buy mine from supercheap, they dont have mine at supercheap. i got mine from j-shop. anyways in the end i guess its "each to there own", if people want to buy a intercooler for 1 to 1.5k because its got "HKS" painted on the front then go for it, wank factor is a big thing these days, ( not for me, but for 90% of people out there it is ).
and its just like bankids said, the china coolers are "copies" of all the big brand names anyway, not independant designs.
