[crazyricochet]

Good news!

Wasn't planning on dropping more dosh on the car.... I hate this place as much as I love it

Leaning towards the silver cooler and also the kompact BOV that doesn't add noise.

Any photos of the black intercooler around?

[d-chang]

Hahaha good job guys!!

[shav]

Oh brilliant. Just need to wait till next week in case anyone else is keen.

[dwee.]

Sweet!

To OP,
Are these coolers any good?
Sorry I have been out of the modding game for a while and just not up to date any products at the moment.
Also, are they the soft Alu like the AVO and have the problem of stripped threads??

Yes, I would like to express interest in black (+10) will also consider (+5).

Thank.

I spoke to my tuner (MSR) on the weekend about them. He says they're great coolers. And has been able to get proven results on the dyno with them.

I can't comment on the material quality, but I haven't heard of anyone having issues like that with Perrin or other types of oem replacement coolers, so I doubt a quality brand like mishimoto would have that issue. A few members already have these coolers and are wrapped with them if that's anything to go by.

Perrin has problems with fitment as it is so large, also I think the turbo may have to clocked slightly.
AVO has soft Alu cast end tank. I have found that the blow off valve bolt holes will strip if you are not careful.
The Mishomoto look like very similar design to AVO.

There is a few guys here who have fitted mishi's to their GT's and havent made any remarks to the issues you bring up. What may look like a similar design might not necessarily mean they will all be the same in terms of issues

^I am still keen to give it a go. They look good and price on the GB is very good. Just reading the post on NASIOC now

Good idea and yes the GB is worth while

I must be thinking of a different Perrin cooler as its almost a mirror image of the Mishimoto. I've got the process west aluminium top mount, and had no issues with the thread for the BOV. And I've taken that off and on a few times. I wouldn't be worried about the Mishimoto either.

But I just remembered, these coolers have a life time warranty... takes all the worries away
