Intercooler Group Buy

Hi all, Im back and with some great news, Iron Horse CooperSports is now a registered NAM vendor and is ready to hook everyone up with great parts and exciting deals. IHC has front-mount intercoolers in-stock now, visit the website www.ironhorsecoopersports.com for more details and pictures, the website will be updated with fresh uploads in the next few days, the parts are here and we are dealing. I will be able to beat that $449 price if I generate more interest, I have 3 in-stock right now and 7 more en-route. Email if you are interested, I will start a list and if 10 or more can hop in, I can go to $419 each, 15 or more $399. Deposit is $100.

The pictures and specs for the OCC kits will be up very soon, all turbos should run a oil catch system and these will be available at $89.95.

Hi all, Ive decided to set the price right now at $429 including ground shipping anywhere US 48 States. AL & HI will be extra. New pix are posted at ironhorsecoopersports.com. The buy will close on 29 Oct and units will be shipped.

I am working on a comprehensive overhaul of the website but that is going to take some time. The OCCs will be ready in about 7 to 10 days at $89.95.

I have posted up the beta page for the OCC.
http://ironhorsecoopersports.com/occ_kitdetail.htm
The page is not public yet, this is the only link and it is still in progress, looked pretty good on my widescreen monitor at home but I see that on a 4:3 it doesnt wrap so well, will be correcting some layout fitments.
Anyhow, the parts are shown and stuff is in transit, should be ready to go live for sales next week. Looking to get a gauge on volume/interest from the NAM readers.

To address some questions, the intercoolers are manufactured in China to the ISO/TS 16949:2009 quality control specification, the latest spec from the international IATF/ISO group which was formerly QS9000. They are fabricated to IHC specifications and all parts are brazed or aluminum welded, there is no resin or epoxy used anywhere in the fabrication, these are 100% metal and are QC inspected twice (there and in the US) before shipping to the customer. These units meet QC standards for Tier 1 automotive suppliers.

The IATF is the International Automotive Task Force, an ad hoc body [FONT=geneva,arial, helvetica,verdana,sans serif][SIZE=2] including: BMW, DaimlerChrysler, Fiat, Ford Motor Company, General Motors (including Opel Vauxhall), PSA Peugeot-Citroen, Renault SA, Volkswagen and their respective trade associations - AIAG (U.S.), ANFIA (Italy), FIEV (France), SMMT (U.K.) and VDA (Germany).

Hi all, I have updated the website w/ hotlinks to the intercooler R&R (removal & re-installation) procedure that I finished writing today. This will allow anyone that is considering a purchase to see if they feel comfortable w/ the procedure personally or if they would be considering having professional installation instead.

Hi all, I have posted some new data to the intercooler page, a 0 to 60 run with accompanying temp info illustrating effectiveness.
And just a friendly reminder that the IHC group buy ends tomorrow nite, to lock in pricing the payment would be due ($429, free ground shippping), units will ship later this week, but Im sure that Hurricane Sandy is going to mess up my shipping schedule a bit, major landfall is due between here and Delaware, just north.
