Default ebay intercooler?

i have just had to remove my oem tmic to try and remove my decat for mot time got through the last 7 mots fine but cant seem to get anywhere to past it due to new vosa rules.

i have the black facelift top mount. its starting to show its age, was hoping to retro fit a newage sti topmount as im not going for massive power. most online seem to be just as bad as mine with bent vins and age marks.

seems a lot of cheap ebay special front mounts, are these any good for am i wasting my time and money?
Do the front mounts add that much cooling to the system, readling an old redline, they seem to do thier job, this was on a tt turbo and not some ebay special.
i dont have buckets of money so the cheaper the better.

My front mount is an eBay one.

Excellent fit, excellent quality. 11deg (avg) inlet drop.

My mate bought a japspeed one for £60 more...

It was identical!!

But was still able to cool nicely on an MD turbo @ 422bhp on a newage bug.

I'm not saying eBay doesn't sell crap... Cos it does but seriously. There are good sellers on there. And there are bargains tobe had.

Thrilled to bits with mine. One of the best mods I've done

Damn, I better change mine. It's been fitted for nearly six years.
