I was looking at the For Sale stuff on this forum and found these two intercoolers for sale. I want to get a bigger intercooler but I want to stay away from front mount in order to stay "stock" looking. Any suggestions as to who makes the "best" stock location intercoolers and if either of these are worth the price?

And is the front mount intercooler a lot better than a stock location mount "stretch" intercooler? Remember eventually Im looking at running in the 10's so I dont want to go through different intercoolers and keep upgrading....... thanks fellas and Ill see you guys Saturday!!!! :D
 
The V4 is a really nice intercooler. Although Tony De Quick never knew how to run his business he always had great products. $450 is a good deal in my opinion. I can't comment on the 2nd intercooler since I'm not familiar with it but I can tell you I had a Mark Jackson 17 row I/C back in the day and it worked very well. The only drawback was that you couldn't run the front sway bar.

The 1st might be difficult to obtain a shroud/scoop for, as Tony De Quick, (Cas=Charge Air Systems) has been out of business for quite some time now, and I have not heard of him making any Buick products, even though he is still around somewhere.
The fact that neither one has sold or at least had counter bids I find interesting also, as CAS was known to have a very quality minded product, as that price seems very reasonable to me too. I am thinking that the "No shroud" might be scaring people away.
The Sims I am not very familiar with.
I think that either 1 of those or both would go mid ten's easily.
 
The intercooler I have is a cas v-2 it is a front mount the v-4 is a stock location and should do well Im not so sure that the scoop is so important,as you could probably fab one up...450 is a steal....thats what I paid for my v-2
