Name this intercooler!!

[Quicksilvergsx]

I got this intercooler when I bought my latest GSX. He said that it is made for an Eclipse and is supposed to hook up to existing pipeing. I'm not sure how that is possible. It has "BG1123" stamped on it, and it looks like it was made in 2001. Other then that I have not seen one like this. Any ideas would be great. Here's the link:

It looks similar to a Dejon Tool FMIC located in the 2G parts section on dsmtuners. it will not be a direct bolt-on to the existing piping but easier than most kits. You will just need a little piping to finish the job. It looks like a keep though.

THanks. That does look a lot like this one, however my core is actually a 24x6x3.

Looks like the Griffin top-to-bottom intercooler core that Road/Race sells..

...however my core is actually a 24x6x3.

RRE sells just the core too, and they have a Griffin core that measures 24x6x2.75. Could be that core with different end-tanks welded on.

It looks like two SMIC's together with custom endtanks. But I could be wrong.

That looks like someone's frankenstein. I'd look for something that's not so beat up already.

Do people actually do that?

Yep. People also use intercoolers from SRT4, Evo8/9, Ford Powerstroke, Volvo. Anything they can get their hands on for next to free. Me personaly, I am far from cheap and have spend WELL over $1100 for my FMIC kit. Mostly because I am anal when it comes to parts for my car and I'm a firm believer you get what you pay for.

yeah but its been proven that ebay intercoolers are of the same quality and have just as good longevity as some of the higher priced HKS or GReddy kits....

I have an SSAutochrome kit that i paid 300 bucks and it is of the same quality as my friends HKS kit on his evo...

To the O.P. i'd ditch it.
