rs73 Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 1. Do an advanced search, searching by Seller's ID and includes all finished items. 2. Contact previous winning bidders on his successful auctions and ask them what their experience is, what is the quality of the product and what is the result (if they have installed it). I did ask a couple of buyers before, they said d2power's service is good and delivery is fast. However at that time no one has installed it yet, they've just received it, so I can't get any result from the installation. Maybe one or two has done it by now. Anyway I have decided to get mine from Japan instead.... so I can't be bothered finding those buyers and asked them again.

rs73 Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Check out his rating first, ask for a COD Robo, that FMIC is shipped from Hong Kong... so no you can't do COD.

Guest Robo's Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Well he's got a feedback of 91, so i guess he is pretty genuine. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/43538-fmic-purchase/#findComment-897088 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MearCat Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 The same guy is selling just the intercooler without plumbing for $370. Given the low price I'm dubious on whether you'd get a decent quality intercooler. I was curious emailed him and you can get the plumbing only for $600 + p&h as well. ModYourCar.com (located here in Perth) has a 600x300x76 cooler on special until end of June for the awsome price of $419 (was $550) and you can get the plumbing plus clamps/joiners custom done for about $450 (but in mild steel not ally like D2Power). Similar total price but personally I'd rather have the piece of mine of getting something local rather than from Hong Kong. My mate has just had a ModYourCar.com cooler fitted to his TT Soarer and reckons it's great! Robo - You said your cooler is exactly the same. Did you actually get it from this guy (D2Power)?

Guest Robo's Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 No i didnt, i got it from the IntercoolerGuy who is in Sydney. He said they are out of the same factory as Hyrbid but didnt have hybrid printed on them. But im 99% these coolers are the same!!! Mine looks identical to this.

MearCat Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 So you're reckoning that Hybrid, ICG and probably these D2Power coolers are the same? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/43538-fmic-purchase/#findComment-901693 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MearCat Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 And you're probably right too. Check out the reference pics on both auctions: D2Power : http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...bayphotohosting Flyn/Hybrid : http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...bayphotohosting Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/43538-fmic-purchase/#findComment-901709 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MearCat Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Mmm - I'll email some Ebay recipients of his intercooler and get their responses. Will get back to this thread in a day or so when I get some feedback on build quailty, power gains etc etc Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/43538-fmic-purchase/#findComment-901976 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ix9 Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 I would like the cooler piping reversed if I get one. (ie, the cold air doesn't flow over a hot engine) Does anyone know if the piping can be made up with mandrel bends and 3" piping ? Anyone done it? Approximate cost ?
