hahn intercooler vs mishimoto

[bluehaze420a]

So I just bought a turbo for my car and im looking for an intercooler. the hahn intercooler with the inlets on both sides is $700+ and the mishimoto is around $300 which doesnt bolt right up. i know you want to shortest route for piping but thats a big price difference. with the mishimoto being 31 inches wide is this hard to make it fit? i also have foglights that i want to keep on there. just curious what most 420a turbo guys do?

Well for the sake of keeping your fog lights and its a direct fit, I'd go with a hahn intercooler. The mishimoto one I'm sure is good, but at 31" wide I don't know if you'll be able to keep your fogs without some excellent fabricating skills. It's all on what you can do honestly. Think you fab that up, do it its cheaper for sure. Not so sure, I'd def go with the Hahn front mount!

I thought Hahn left the DSM world and went after those Pontiac Solstice? Does he still make stuff or is it all used market now?

I had his I/C, I/C Pipes, and down pipe on my 2gen years ago. Good quality parts. Lived around the corner from his shop in Oswego at the time.
