Does anyone know where I can get a GReddy Intercooler for a '99 Mitsubishi GS-T Eclipse? Used or brand new. For a reaonable price.
Thanks,

Probably the best FMIC kit on the market for it's price. (LESS then $400)
Though I suggest you trade the BOV for a REAL Greddy or 1g BOV.

Replace the upper hat diaphragm for a real Greddy one and there is NO difference.
Get you something that is just as functional at 1/2 the price.

yea my buddy got a Greddy knock off for his SVO Ranger. It was some assjack who took a flat piece of sheet metal and overlapped the fold and than proceeded to stick weld the **** out of it. We ended up cutting everything but the mounting flange and rewelding it all onto a piece of exhaust piping. Such jerry rigging. I still have his TMIC sitting in the garage.

problem with mine was the springs inside of it. There were two inside. I removed one. The BOV would still not open. luckily my friends "reliable" as some people would say lol. RX7 blew its rear seal so ive just been using his for the time being.

I did side by side comparison of a few products of ebay.
Including the HKS SSQV, Greddy Type-S and EVO III GT Turbo and various FMIC.
I did not have two springs in my EBay one, but there are MANY out there.

Seals only blow if you treat the engine like garbage. I've seen TIIs run 150k miles+ with stock everything.

It had an exhaust and intake for about 5k miles. it was owned by a little old women before him who kept extremely good care of it. He hardly ever came near redline and is a mechanic so it was well taken care of its entire life.

:facepalm: It doesn't matter who owns it. Most mechanics I've met simply don't know how to work on rotaries. If you know how to treat it well it will last long. And I have been riding mine hard for about 60k miles now and it runs the same as it did 60k miles ago.

You make it sound like they are these amazingly comlipcated engines. They aren't.
