Is there that big of a difference in name brands? I know get bar/plate style.
This one is a little shorter than the precision 600hp unit. I like it because it's cheaper. And no, I dont care about being shiny. Whatever I get, it's getting painted.

Lets be honest here guys.
Is it worth it to have a name brand?
For the record, I'm not planning to make 600whp, it's a street car w/ ac.
I think you will find the opinion on this varies as much as the opinion on wheel brands...that being said, as you are not trying to make 600hp I do not think you would notice much of a difference using an off brand...especially since you plan on painting it and that is a huge no no for intercoolers.
