... that is an interesting looking part.  From looking at the pictures I
wonder about if the thing flows any better than the stock IC ... the
connection at the outlet looks pretty restrictive and the bend at the inlet
doesn't look that good either.  Has anyone actually used one of these
"sport" ICs and have any data to show that the thing is any better than the
stock unit?  If the heat exchanger was better than stock I'd be half tempted
to weld the stock inlet and outlet castings onto the heat exchanger!

TIA!
