In my worldly travels (on www.) I found a steal on a t25 turbonetics turbo kit.  Newly rebuilt turbo, greedy BOV, downpipe w/flange, bunch alum tube silicon boots and clamps.  Also has an intercooler.  Came off a little rice burner car, guess you could say its going back on a little rice burner.  rofl

Intercooler has a bent bottom, no leaks, but wont look good.  And I can pu some the same size for -$100.  Or for +$1k.  Is there that much diff in them?  Seem to be same style of cooler except for some 2 core and water to air, they are all bar-plate-fin type.  Only looking for 8-10lbs.  What say you?

Do air to air for simplicity. Water to air is better but you won't need it. For our purposes the cheapo's are just fine .

Agree on air to air. 
But there are two type; bar & plate, and tube & fin.

Bar & plate; double + the money, double the weight.  Much better internal flow, but worse exterior flow.  Shouldnt be placed in front of rad, better suited for long on boost use.
Tube& fin; cheap, light.  Can chop the internal flow, better exteior cooling.  Can place in front of other cooling items.  Workes better for on & off boost. 

So I'm picking up a new $100 cooler. Tube and fin style and they're doing some flow stuff to help smooth out inside air.  Also gotta pickup and external wastegate.
