Cheap ebay cooler is only good for about 300 so a waste of money.

Z2TT Member 714 Member For: 12y 10m 18d Posted 24/05/14 02:09 PM Share Posted 24/05/14 02:09 PM (edited) Factory F6 Cooler is good for 300rwkw, direct fit and good quality and I had no issues with the power the car made and how it drove.I went from Factory to F6 to Proccess West Stage 1 and I did not notice any lag increase.Value for money I would go with the F6 Cooler every day.
