Default Godspeed Intercooler

Sorry if this has already been posted but I was wondering if the godspeed intercooler kits are good or not? I ordered one for my 03 GTI 1.8t and am somewhat scared as to what I'm getting myself into

yo the godspeed fmic's are not that bad, just make sure you get a diff clamp to put ontop of your turbo outlet cuz the ones it comes with are too big and dont tighten it enough, other then that im pretty content with the kit, havent had any problems and it flows pretty decently

an intercooler is an intercooler...as long as it has good dimensions youre good.

on my old SE-R i used an ebay intercooler with 0 problems...thing worked like a champ.....almost never heat soaked on me unless i was stuck in rush hour traffic on the howard franklin bridge

Yeah except a quality FMIC will have a higher "fin" density.

this is true....i just couldnt justify spending 300+ dollars on an intercooler setup that i can get for 150.

It rarely got heat soaked and worked like a champ....
