from what i have heard, they are good coolers...
at the end of the day it comes down to personal preference and experience with different brand intercoolers... more or less as good as each other...

i got one of these!
if ya gunna mount ya fan on the out side of the intercooler make sure your rad is in tip top condition!
if not its gunna take some pissing about to get the fan in the middle!
If i was to do it all again i would go pro alloy!

I would go Pro Alloy or GRS.
Infact, I did go Pro Alloy!! (See pics on my Engine Build thread). I like the overall quality and finish.
GRS have just done the EVO 5 RST Cooler too, so that might be worth a look.

When i had my turbo i put one in it, i also put the fan between the rad, this fitted fine, no need to alter anything ( like the bumper ) the only thing that happened was the rad sat a bit closer to the actuator, but nothing serious, i didnt have an act gauge but it never ran hot, but i fitted a switch for the fan just incase it got hot in traffic

mine is set with the fan on the outside of the cooler (which i dont like look of) and i gave the car a good caning down southers, parked up left it runnning for about 5mins while waiting for mates an that! looked down and the temp gauge was nearly in red!
Shat meself turned engine off opend bonnet let it cool for about 20seconds before me mates go! "ok lets go" FOOOOOKERS!
