You have presented a compelling argument. I am convinced and shall stay away from cheaply made Chinese intercoolers.

Two reasons.....

1. You are not 100% sure of the quality.

2. Third party sellers don't get their cut (thus driving up the price)... so of course they will tell you to stay away. They will frighten you by alluding to #1.

If I was going to go with a 'stock location' FMIC upgrade, it'd be the CP-e hands down without a second thought. For an actual 'front mount location' FMIC, I'm always going to recommend Levels. Nik does a superb job and his quality is right up there with the best of them. The cast end tanks, performance, and construction of the Level's units are hard to beat for the price. I had one of the very first FMICs he made for the EBM and upgraded to the newer model (with cast end tanks, larger dimensions, etc) near the end of last summer. It's a sexy unit at a heck of a price and the performance is there to match it. There's a reason why so many people choose his work. That's not to say the others aren't performers or lack in quality, but when you compare all of the metrics, Levels is the winner to me.

When a vehichle manufacturer utilizes the parts streams to manufacture vehichles they utilize the lowest bidders to supply said parts to bring the vehichles together on Budget .

This is called Global Mass Marketing ..

Lowest bidders to "x specification".... specs (hopefully) provide the quality in this case.

If they had no specifications, I'd make millions sending Ford parts made from Walmart aluminum foil.
