We all know PW quality is excellent, but its no secret that you pay for the R and D + the quality. Hence, I was expecting a higher price than this.

RAP1D Member Donating Members 3,739 Member For: 18y 11m 8d Gender: Male Location: Sydney NSW Posted 03/03/11 12:16 AM Share Posted 03/03/11 12:16 AM I just sold the last one of these from our first batch of 15 made, but being made here in Sydney, hand fabricated, hand polished and sold with quality silicon joiners and clamps, I can't compete with 99 bucks... so not much point making any more, unless I mass produce them in China, then I'll pump them out for $25 each LOLSomething to note, both mine and the latest Plazmaman FG intercooler kits were designed and made without retaining the OEM elbow, as from my extensive XR6T research and development I've know since 2008 that the plastic elbow splits under high boost, so our kits were made to run directly to the throttle body, deleting the tight, plastic elbow...so no need for 99 buck band aids later on when the others figure it out.Happy boosting guys and I hope everyone has an awesome weekend at Powercruise!
