That is not to the the correct intercooler for the ATI kit. It looks like some of the crap intercoolers I have seen on ebay. 99.9% scam.

That's because it is a supercharger! Even the eBay ad says so -- ATI makes the ProCharger.

Your right...It isnt the right intercooler . ATI's IC is a up and down flow IC . The same design as APS uses .

If you look closely as well, two of the three pics of the charger are the same unit, while the third pic is of an entirely different unit.

I'd never bid on anything from someone who has zero feedback anyway.
