Intercooler for C-Coupe

I haven't completely decided but if someone wants my Renntech Intercooler I'll part with it for the right price. It works and does what it's supposed to do, I just don't drive the car hard enough to make it worthwhile for me so I'll sell it or put it back in. It appears as though any form of group buy on someone making a cheaper intercooler fell apart so this is you chance to get a Renntech/Spearco for a lower price. It includes everything you need to install it, hoses, clamps, felt padding. I removed it because I had a performance problem on my car but that wasn't it. The problem is likely in the fuel settings but I'll know more next week about that.

I'm looking for $750 either installed in So Cal or shipped anywhere in the U.S. or Canada.

Is this a proto-type or a 'real' one?

I am very interested, do you take paypal or MO only?

Paypal preffered and no, this isn't the prototype but was part of a group buy when they did that a few months ago.

Pascal, while you weren't looking I removed your water/air intecooler and it works great in my car. This means I'll have to change my Renntech badge to AMG now!

I don't know if anyone is interested, but I spoke to Renntech today...they told me they will have a full kit for the '03 1.8 which includes a pulley and ecu for around $2,900 that will be available in as quick as 10 days.

That's great, choices for the new motor. Do you know how they are handling the pulley? My wild guess is that they will give you every pulley except for the s/c pulley and the idler/tensioner pulleys. So a large crank pulley but smaller alternator, water pump, power steering, a/c pulleys. But that's just my speculation and obviously changing just the s/c pulley would be the best way but that doesn't mean it's easy to do.

I didn't get into specifics, they said to call back in 10 days.

That better be one hell of a pulley and ECU for that much. I would buy just the pulley, but if it is a smaller SC pulley it should be around $200 for it. There is not that much metal there. For $2900 they better put a Tech in the box and the pulley puller so he can get it off for you.
